Microsoft Edge Error Code: Out of Memory fixes?

Hi,

I am getting the Error code: Out of Memory issue occurring on Edge almost daily, it can happen at various points during the day, normally I have at max 3-5 tabs open on edge normally but no more than 10 tabs open at a maximum and sometimes I may have a game playing on my other monitor. This occurs both when I have games running and when they are closed.

Sometimes this results in my games crashing to desktop or the GPU drivers/task manager crashes and I get a black screen and it looks like it when you boot into safe mode and the GPU drivers have been reset and I cannot use my other monitors during this process, restarting usually fixes this for a period of time.

I do have three extensions enabled, they are AdBlock Plus, and two twitch extensions: Better TTV & FrankerFaceZ

I have tried reinstalling edge, clearing browsing data, cookies. I also have tried this with chrome, and it does the same thing. It is really frustrating.

My PC Specs are.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X

RAM: 64GB 3600 MHz Corsair DDR4

GPU: Gigabyte Vision 3030 and the current driver is 551.23.

My current windows version is 23H2 and is up to date.                                              

My Microsoft edge version is Version 121.0.2277.98 (Official build) (64-bit)

    I can confirm that I have both the enhance security option and the acceleration off and this is still happening.

    I never had problems with Edge, now every time I watch a video on YouTube I get:

    This page is having a problem
    Try coming back to it later.
    You could also:
    . Open a new tab
    . Refresh this page

    I did the following, and these worked for me:

    click three dots on the top right corner - Settings - System & Performance - turn off all the following features:

    Startup boost

    Use graphics acceleration when available

    Enhance videos in Microsoft Edge

    Improve your PC gaming experience with efficiency mode

    Save resources with sleeping tabs

    Didn't work for me. Happening all the time. Might be time to switch to Chrome as no recommendations have worked.

    It's even shutting down Edge altogether.
