Disable First Run Welcome Page in Edge browser

Using Local Group Policy Editor

The easiest solution for Windows 11/10 Pro or Windows 11/10 Enterprise is to modify the policies in the Local Group Policy Editor. Follow these simple steps carefully: 1] Open the ‘Run’ command. You can do that by pressing Win+R. 2] In the Run space, type ‘gpedit.msc’. Click ‘OK’. This opens the Local Group Policy Editor. 3] Go to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Microsoft Edge. 4] Double click the ‘Prevent First Run from opening on Microsoft Edge’ option and click on the ‘Enable’ option. 5] Click ‘Apply’ and then ‘Okay’. If you wish to undo the changes, repeat up to step 4 mentioned above and then click the ‘Not Configured’ option.

Using Registry Editor

If your version of Windows 11/10 does not include the Group Policy Editor, you can use the Registry method to get the job done. Since a lot could go wrong if you don’t do this right, be careful. Follow each step just as it is and wait if you’re stuck on any level. Also, create a backup of everything important, just in case. Now that the precautions are taken don’t worry, this method is not rocket science either. Just follow these steps: If you wish to reverse the changes, right-click the MicrosoftEdge folder key and ‘Delete’ it. Enjoy new feature updates without facing the Edge First Run page again.
