To add a new profile, click the profile picture in the upper right corner of the browser window (or open the Profiles page directly using edge://settings/profiles/), and then click Add Profile. Click the name under the Web Browser heading to change the current default. To change your default browser setting in Windows 10, go to Settings > Apps > Default Apps. You can accept or reject that option, and you can change your mind at any time afterward. When you install the new Edge, you're prompted to make it your default browser. In the following sections, I've used the edge://settings shortcuts that allow you to jump straight to a specific section. Note that you can configure most of the Edge options I describe here by clicking the three dots in the top right corner of the browser window (or pressing Alt+F)and then choosing Settings from the Edge menu. Most of the steps I outline below apply to all versions, but I've specifically focused on Windows 10 in this post. You can just dive in and start using the new Edge, but I recommend making a few tweaks first. On Windows 10, your legacy Edge browser will be automatically upgraded to the new Edge if you're running a retail version of Windows, but that automatic upgrade won't happen on commercial editions (Enterprise and Server) or on systems where the user has signed in using Active Directory or Azure Active Directory.

I want to keep using Microsoft Edge, because It works great aside from this one little thing. I've run across the site a bunch of times in the past, and I know for sure that it's malware (A younger and more gullible me found this out). I've also tried adjusting my computer so that it would block the site (with my instructions found here: ). First thing I did was go to task manager and close the program down completely, which didn't help because as soon as I started it again the same exact page would be loaded up because it seems I never technically closed it. So, a site popped up while I was browsing on Microsoft Edge, and it won't let me close it.
