    Microsoft Edge

    I have recently solved two problems that irritated me.
    One was the tab screen opening with "about blank" and the other was Edge taking ages to open, hanging on a white screen.

    Solution -
    Open Edge, click the 3 dots at top right of the screen, then -
    Settings>System and Performance.

    1. "Use hardware acceleration when available" - set to OFF.
    This corrected the "about blank" on tab opening, Edge now opens immediately with a Bing search tab.

    2. "Startup boost" - set to ON. This corrected Edge hanging on opening - it now opens very quickly with no white screen lag.
