Hopefully the 'Make Bing Your Search Engine' download hasn't been used.

On your browser's New Tab pin this address to the quick links on the page to search with Bing and set the home button to it.

sdowney,

Toggling it to 'Strict' on the IN Private page doesn't stop the feed, as you have learned.

You need to open a normal Edge Homepage, then at top right of page, click on 'Settings' > 'Privacy, search and services' > and set to 'Strict'.

After doing that, close the page, and open 'In Private'. The news feed will not be showing.


Good luck.

Thanks as I need it. that luck

It took me to privacy settings, but I suppose I messed up somehow. I had to log into my account to get to this page
Since I dont see search and services, not the right page?

OK, found strict under search history mange search set to strict and the web page closed by itself

Sdowney,

I am at a loss now, unfortunately, as how to advise further. I'm sorry.

It works perfectly for me. No News Feeds or Ads, when usining In Private mode.


The only thing I can think of, is that as stated previously, I am running Win 10, not 11. But honestly, that should make no difference when using the same latest Stable version of Edge browser.

All I can do at this point, is wish you luck in finding a solution. Perhaps/hopefully, another member will be able to assist you.


Take care, WXC.

I finally figured out MS's strategy!
The more you can't get an MS product working the way you want, the more you go to your grave trying!!!
Pretty clever of those b*stards, isn't it!?!?!? :cool:

@sdowney717 and @Edwin, here is a screenshot of my In Private page. As you can see, no news Feeds. (My apologies for beating a dead horse).

When I open a new tap in edge, bing.com opens. You are showing no bing.com site.
My issue is bing.com, not just a blank new tab. I have EDGE set to open new tabs and go to bing.com

How about seeing if you can get it bing.com to not display news, and also no scroll bars.

I will just give up on bing.com as a new tab page I suppose, then I see this. Search is set to moderate, not strict.

That would be best. The news feed you dislike is an integral part of the Bing web page, with no apparent option to turn it off. Any browser visiting the Bing home page will show it, not just Edge.

I had it set to bing like forever it seems, so I have gotten very used to it like that, but then I got tired of the constant harping news feeds

My Bing. Fast too! (Course, there's very little cache accumulated so far!)
