How can I set a default workspace to always open when I start Microsoft Edge?

I am changing from Vivaldi to Microsoft Edge today since I noticed we now have the Workspace feature that was the main reason I was using Vivaldi before.

The problem is that even though I have created the Workspaces according to my need and set this setting to "Open tabs from the previous sessions":

User's image

Settings > Start, home, and new tabs > When Edge starts

Every time that open close Edge and reopen it, it just opens the browser in a new tab out of the Workspace I was just working on.

My question is: Is there any way to set a default Workspace for Edge to launch every time I open the browser? Or just set it to open the browser in the Workspace I was working on before closing it?

    Hi Goncalves, CaioX,

    Thanks for posting in our Q&A forum.

    Upon checking and testing, there is currently no way to launch Microsoft Edge to Workspace directly.
    We recommend that you could submit a feature request to the Dev Team by sending feedback (Press Alt+Shift+I) in Microsoft Edge.

    We highly appreciate your kind understanding.

    1. Click the "Invite" button on the opened workspace and select "Copy link".
    2. Go to settings under the category "When Edge starts".
    3. Select "Open these pages" > "Add a new page" > Copy the copied link.
