I updated Edge to 112.0.1722.34, and ever since then whenever I open Edge, the startup page is briefly displayed and then the following URL is executed and never stops: https://edgeservices.bing.com/edgesvc/shell?lightschemeovr=1&FORM=SHORUN&udscs=1&udsnav=1&setlang=en-US&clientscopes=noheader,coauthor,chat,docvisibility,visibilitypm,&udsframed=1&adlt=strict If I log into another user on the same laptop, Edge opens correctly. How can I get Edge to not execute the above command? I'm running on Windows 10 Home 22H2 and Windows update is current.

    It seems like the issue might be caused by some corrupted files or settings in your Edge browser. You can try resetting the Edge browser settings to their default values, which should resolve the issue. Here are the steps to reset Edge browser settings:

    Open the Edge browser and click on the three dots icon at the top right corner. Click on Settings from the dropdown menu. Scroll down and click on Reset settings under the Reset and cleanup section. Click on the Restore settings to their default values button and then click on Reset settings. After resetting the settings, Edge will restart, and you should no longer encounter the issue with the edgeservices.bing.com URL. If the issue persists, you can try reinstalling the Edge browser, which should resolve any further issues related to corrupted files.

    It seems that the bing discover option (sidebar) is causing the issue. Deactivation did not solve the issue but starting Edge with the msUndersideButton feature disabled works for me. I simple created a new Edge link on the desktop with target: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" -disable-features=msUndersideButton" . Now the bing discovery doesn't get called. Will wait and try to reenable the feature later after some update cycles.

    edge://settings/system Désactiver Démarrage rapide et Continuer à exécuter les extensions et les applications en arrière-plan lorsque Microsoft Edge est fermé

    • "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --disable-features=msUndersideButton semble résoudre le problème

    I just experienced the same. Clicking a link from a different application caused this for me in a brand new Windows 11 setup where I configured the Windows 11 from scratch and then applied all Windows updates. The thing is that you need to configure a Microsoft account and I did setup a brand new Microsoft account to be used. When I clicked the little Account icon in Edge in the upper right corner it had this text reading "Not completed" or something similar. So, I clicked it and now it just reads "Synchronization complete" or whatever it reads in your language. After I did that the problem was gone.

    Sylvain's answer is useful: In Edge settings, disable Quick Start and Continue to run extensions and apps in the background when Microsoft Edge is closed
