How to Manage Startup Page in Microsoft Edge

The startup page in Microsoft Edge controls which websites automatically load when you launch the browser in version 120 and later. Setting this up lets you skip opening your favorite sites one by one and jumps straight to your email, news, or a blank tab.

You can choose to open a blank page, pick up right where you left off from your last browsing session, or open a specific set of websites the second you start browsing. These choices save you time and keep your most important pages ready right away.

Manage Edge start settings

You can manage startup page Edge preferences to control what appears on your screen the moment you launch the browser. Changing these options lets you open a blank new tab page, restore all tabs from your previous browsing session, or automatically load a specific set of websites every time you start Microsoft Edge.

1. Open the Microsoft Edge browser.
2. Click the Settings and more (three dots) icon in the top right corner.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the Search settings bar at the top, type “Start” to quickly find the right section.
5. Click on Start, home, and new tabs in the left menu.

On the right side, under the When Edge starts section, you have a few choices:

• Open the new tab page: Shows a clean new tab every time.
• Open tabs from the previous session: Restores the websites you had open when you last closed the browser.
• Open these pages: Allows you to add specific websites that will always launch at startup.

System and Performance Features

Edge system and performance settings help the browser launch faster and use less computer memory while you work. You can turn on tools like Startup boost to load the browser quicker in the background and use Sleeping tabs to pause inactive pages so your computer runs more smoothly.

• Startup boost: Found under System and performance, this keeps a small version of Edge running in the background. It helps the browser open much faster. If this is on, your "Open these pages" selection will load almost instantly.
• Sleeping tabs: When you choose to "Open tabs from the previous session," Edge uses Sleeping tabs to save memory. It puts inactive tabs to sleep so your computer stays fast, even if you had many pages open before closing the browser.

That should do it!
