Good evening, is there a way to disable the automatic inclusion of the _layouts/15/start.aspx on all URLs of a MYSITE web application on SharePoint 2019? All URLs that are using the _layouts/15/start.aspx are throwing an error, but if I remove it, it works without a problem. I read that on 2013 this could be related to the Minimal Download Strategy (MDS) feature, but I can't find it on 2019 to disable it.

    @Luiz Gouvea You can go to Site settings->Manage site features, then find "Minimal Download Strategy" and deactivate it.

    Or, you can use PowerShell cmdlets to disable the feature:

    $web=Get-SPWeb <your site URL>  
    $web.EnableMinimalDownload=$false  
    $web.Update()  
    

    Please have a try and let's know the result.
