In most cases, you would setup a single URL under this key, but you can set more to have Edge bring up multiple pages at startup.Įach registry value entry must have a unique entry name and contain the value of a URL you want Edge to restore at startup. This value entry (or entries) contains the URL (or URLS) you want Edge to open at startup. The second value entry (or entries) is within the key HKCU:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\RestoreOnStartupURLs. By setting this entry with a value of 4, you tell Edge to use the URL or URLs you specify when it starts up rather than the default home page. The first is the RestoreOnStartup value entry to the registry key HKCU:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge. And fortunately, this is straightforward to achieve.Īn easy way to set the startup page for yourself is to configure two registry value entries on the local machine. But in some circumstances, you may wish to change this default. For many, this is fine – they can browse the contents and then navigate where they want. When the Edge browser starts up, it displays a startup page based on Bing by default. And as ever – E&OE! (Errors and Omissions Excepted) Other browsers can have different approaches to startup page.
