Microsoft is testing a new default behavior for Edge on Windows 11 that will allow the browser to automatically open upon startup. Some users are reporting that a new banner is appearing at the top of the Edge browser that says the app "now launches when you sign into Windows, so it's ready when you want to browse. Change this anytime in Settings."
Windows Central can confirm that as of the latest Microsoft Edge Beta build, this banner does appear at the top of the interface, and unless you select the "No thanks" button, the browser will automatically appear every time you start up your PC. The good news is that you can disable this, but the bad news is it appears to be opt-out rather than opt-in.

Microsoft Edge's new feature will force it to appear every time you turn on your Windows 11 PC
A new update now in testing sets Edge to automatically appear at startup, and you are forced to opt-out if you don't want it.
