Microsoft Edge Freezes Tabs
« on: February 20, 2022, 06:55:21 PM »
This is not my preference, but I am temporarily using Microsoft Edge.  If I don't use a tab for a while, it will freeze.  My work-a-round is to make a duplicate tab and refresh the new tabbed page.  It works every time, but is a nuisance to do.  I prefer not to erase my browsing history.  Any ideas?

Very interesting idea, but I click on the tab to choose it and nothing happens.   I then refresh and nothing happens, then I right click to duplicate tab and refresh the new tab which then opens.
