Question

how do I make my microsoft edge home screen the way it used to be?

robbie rochford 0

When I log into microsoft edge my home screen is completely white with a search bar. Which isn't normal because when I used to go into microsoft edge it always had the discover page below and all the normal stuff and articles below. Now it was just showing a blank white screen with a search bar and nothing else. Now when I log into microsoft edge it is saying that my home microsoft edge page is "blocked because of unsafe content" even though I haven't logged into any unsafe websites.

Hi Robbie,

I'm Sumit, here to help with your query on the Microsoft Q&A forums.

Apologies for any inconvenience you are experiencing. I am happy to help you today.

The new tab page being blank is due to a network issue. Does the issue persist with WiFi Hotspot of your Phone.

Let us try Resetting Edge Settings to defaults using the steps below, in the hope it helps.

Click on the three-dot menu button on the right.

Click on Settings.

Click on Reset settings.

Click on Restore settings to their default values.

Click on Reset.

2nd step: Sometimes extensions on the web browser might cause unintended behaviour. Please click the three dots menu again, and choose extensions.

Click Manage extensions.

Disable all of them for testing purposes, and let me know if it works.
