I dont know if this behaviour was posted here before, but for example, I have 5 tabs on the new Microsoft Edge and spent some time in one of them, and then I move to another tab, that tab get refreshed just because I opened it, then if I move to another one is the same, tab gets refreshed. This did not happen in the old Edge. It is frustating some times because supposed I am reading something or I am writing something in the page, when I move between tabs all get refreshed, like loading all the content again.

I am using a Surface Pro 5 and this not happen in my MacBook Pro.

Thanks.

    Looks like those settings have been removed from Chrome as well - they cannot be found in advanced settings now.

    Have you gotten a reply? I turned my sleeping tabs off completely and it's still happening, and I'm losing my mind. It keeps refreshing my WORK, and reloading 500+ pages multiple times a day is driving me insane.

    Hello! My name is Marco, I am an Independent Advisor. I will do my best to help you.

    This is not a common bug, have you tried a default restore of the settings?
