To make Microsoft Edge open a chosen website in a new tab, set that site as your homepage, then select the homepage as the new-tab destination if your Edge version offers that option. The Home button, startup page, and New tab page are separate settings, so changing only the Home button may not affect new tabs.

Set a homepage and use it for new tabs

  1. In Microsoft Edge, select Settings and more (…) in the upper-right corner, then select Settings.

  2. Open Start, home, and new tab page.

  3. Under the home-button settings, turn on Show home button. Choose the option to enter a URL, then type or paste the website address you want.

  4. In the same settings area, check the new-tab options. If your version offers a choice to open new tabs with your homepage, select it.

If the homepage option is missing

Edge’s available choices can vary between versions. If you do not see an option to use the homepage for new tabs, the homepage setting will still configure the Home button, but the cited Microsoft instructions do not establish that every version supports using that URL for every new tab. Check the new-tab controls in your installed version; do not assume the startup or Home button setting changes them.
