Problem

You open MS Edge. The browser window is generally unresponsive although you might be able to type a URL into the URL bar. After a moment or two and sometimes quicker, Edge just closes.

Solution

Open a Command Prompt (Start menu → Run → cmd ) or a Powershell (Start menu → Run → powershell ) and type in the following:

reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Spartan" /v RAC_LaunchFlags /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

You will see a message saying something like "The Operation Completed Successfully". And now Edge should work properly.
