New Tab Redirect
Description from store

Allows you to change the new tab page to the New Tab Redirect app page, or a custom URL of your choice!

Choose from edge's about pages, *NewTab, Extensions, Downloads, History*, a few popular URLs, or provide your own. Your custom tab can also be a local file, allowing you to create your own new tab page. Saving blank text will cause your new tab to be about:blank.

Files can begin with: file:\\, file://, and file:///

Important: This is not meant to replace your homepage, only new tabs. If your browser is set to load the New Tab page as your homepage, there may be odd consequences.

Note: Because this extension perform a "redirect", I have no control over address bar highlighting or focus.

Now it contains a virus laden browser link that fills your screen with orange on trying to go to some sites. Wasted hours of my time tracking this **** down, how is it still allowed on microsoft addon shop?
Leon
When visiting major websites, the entire page would be covered with a message reading "Your browser is not supported" and would have a button that links to a suspicous website to "download Opera." It's been reported as malware.

Cumple con su función!! Realmente útil para edge.

Perfecta, la opción ideal, poner about:blank en la dirección mientras no se configura a fondo, eso evitara error de compatibilidad con edge. Se acabo el rastreo por esa via.
