How to open a Blank Tab or Page when you launch Edge browser
When you open a new tab in the new Microsoft Edge (Chromium), it offers a rather personalized experience. You get to see an image of the day, quick links, the content section, which is mostly from Microsoft News, it is distracting and takes a lot of space. However, there is no option to open a blank tab in Edge that has nothing in the body section. I remember Edge HTML or Edge Legacy had these features – but not anymore in the new version.
So now that we know that it is not possible to open Blank TAB or Page, here is what I did to get close to it. Its a workaround, and you may or may not like it. However, its the closest thing you can have. There are two ways to achieve this.

So once you have turned off Image of the day, Quick Links, and Image of the day what you will be left with an almost blank tab with Microsoft Bing Search. Chrome offers something similar for every new tab.
It is the closest blank page or minimal new tab experience you would get because there is no way to remove the Bing Search box. It doesn’t look that bad and will be the least distracting.
