Startup boost

Startup boost helps Microsoft Edge start up quicker. It keeps the browser running in the background with minimal resources, so Microsoft Edge will start quickly when opened after a device reboot or after you reopen it.

Microsoft Edge will start more quickly when it is launched from the taskbar, desktop, or from hyperlinks embedded in other applications when you log on after device startup or the browser is closed.
