Bing keeps changing settings

Question

Hello guys. I recently switched to Edge and Bing from Chrome and Google. Everything seems fine till now but I have 2 problems

1. The option for opening links on new tab is always on. I change it on settings, click save but when I reopen bing it is still on.
2. The SafeSearch keeps changing to moderate. I chose off, save but when I reopen bing it is still on
3. Country/Region is on international. That means I dont get localised results. I put my country, which is an option on the list (Greece) but, as always, when I reopen bing it is still on

I like Bing. It is fast, results seem fine and it gives me points for microsoft rewards. But these 3 options are a must. Please tell me there is a way to fix it so i dont have to return to google

Hello WaveringRad82

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

Regarding to your information I assume that you can't save Bing settings.

For test you can also try to create a new account and then check it can save the setting or not.

It will help us confirm that it's an account problem or a browser problem.

Make sure that you don't stop any cookies from Bing.

You can check it on this website.

edge://settings/content/cookies

After that you can try to clean the cookies and cache then try to change it again.

edge://settings/clearBrowserData

You can also try to create a new profile then log in your account then try to change the setting again.

edge://settings/profiles

If still can't solve this problem maybe you can try to submit your feedback on the Bing page.

If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know. Best Regards,
