My internet tabs keeps randomly closing. Sometimes it's because I clicked something, but its getting really annoying. It also closes when I don't press anything. I have tried deleting my extensions, making and sure there is no malware on my device, and still no luck. I tried typing something earlier and I had to re-open it. It would really help if you could help with this. My Platform is Windows 10 and my browser is ChromiumEdge 141.

    Hi,

    You can try this: first, reset Microsoft Edge settings by going to Settings > Reset settings > Restore settings to their default values, this helps if a hidden configuration is causing the tabs to close. Second, disable "Startup Boost" and "Continue running background extensions" under System and performance in Edge settings, as these features sometimes cause instability. Third, create a new Edge user profile to check if the issue is linked to a corrupted browser profile. Lastly, update or reinstall Edge from the official Microsoft website to repair any damaged files. After trying these, test Edge without any sync or sign-in first to see if it stays stable.

    Kind regards,
