MS Edge: Basic Browser Settings.
The latest changes to the basic settings in MS Edge are just a joke. How did anyone think that what has been implemented could be acceptable in any way?

So far, I have not been able to get them all at the same time to default to "about:blank"
I don't appreciate anything that tries to lead me by the nose!
I also get very antsy if I am told to "clear the cache" to try and fix the above, especially after clearing the cache and NOTHING happens!
