How to stop Edge restoring tabs after a crash

1

If Microsoft Edge crashes or is forcibly stopped, when you restart it you see the tabs that were open before. I need to stop this behaviour.

Several web pages say that you do this by adding:

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\MicrosoftEdge\Recovery\AutoRecover

and

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\MicrosoftEdge\Recovery\AutoRecover

to the Windows registry, and giving them both the value 2. However, this has no effect on the two PCs I have tried it on (both Windows 10).

Is there something else I should be doing?

Are your Edge settings configured to something other than "Previous Session"? From TechNet

Open Microsoft Edge with: New tab page. Open new tabs with: A blank page – Charles Anderson – 2019-04-29T13:22:40.847
