Sorry, I tried to duplicate your problem but had no issue toggling it off. I was on Edge 135.0.3179.98. It toggled off fine. I then updated Edge to 136.0.320.50. That option was automatically toggled off again. I was able to toggle it on and off, though.
Firt close and restart Edge to see if you can disable that setting.
Disable any Edge add-ons and try again.
If that doesn't work,the only thing I would know to try would be to reset Edge, but that puts everything back to default (setting>reset settings.)
However that puts Edge back to default. It would delete all your settings, add-ons, history,cookies, saved passwords, and bookmarks. So if you do that make sure you export all that.
If you are syncing Edge, all that might be imported back into Edge after a reset, but I would not guarantee that so I would manually export everything and then you can import anything that is missing after a reset.
