Security News > 2021 > May > Microsoft Edge 91 brings new bugs and annoying popup messages
Microsoft released Microsoft Edge 91 yesterday, and since then, users have been reporting constant nag screens, bugs, and problems using the new version of the web browser.
Microsoft Edge 91 is a milestone release for the browser with numerous new features introduced, such as Price History, Cash Back & Rebates, Kids Mode, a new Pride theme, and personalized news.
The most annoying issue that people are experiencing is a new Microsoft Edge nag screen continuously shown on startup asking users if they want to 'Use recommended browser settings.
Microsoft Edge users have also reported on Wilder Security Forums, Microsoft Edge Insider forums, and the Feedback Hub, that the browser Edge is no longer honoring their configured startup page and is opening the New Tab page instead. BleepingComputer was able to reproduce this bug after we changed the startup page to BleepingComputer.com, and the New Tab page continued to open when we relaunched the browser.
Update 5/30/21: You can turn off the Microsoft Edge nag screen by disabling the 'Show feature and workflow recommendations' flag in the browser.
Once Microsoft Edge restarts, you will no longer see the 'Use recommended browser settings' nag screen.
