Edge to automatically open by default every time you turn on your Windows 11 PC


As of March 2026, YouTube has introduced a redesign to its embedded player that affects how videos appear on third-party websites. This change has caused reports of embedded videos appearing blurred or having reduced functionality, such as altered keyboard controls and navigation, while embedded on external sites.
Key Aspects of the Embedded Player Changes:
• Embedded Player Redesign: The new, redesigned embedded player is causing unexpected visual and functional issues, including reported blurring, on some external websites.
• Functionality Changes: The gear icon for settings has moved to the top right, and some keyboard shortcuts for speed and captions no longer work in the embedded player.
• Adblocker Issues: Users with adblockers may experience additional restrictions, including capped video resolution at 720p.

Well this new EDGE startup/open with Windows is getting a great deal of backlash, It currently is only being rolled out gradually to Insiders in the Dev channel I believe. If it does come to the stable branch, one will be able to toggle it off.

The issue is that one should have to toggle it ON. not off.

I know that you know that, the entire world knows that but Microsoft does not.
