How or can even "Bing" start every time I turn on my PC? I remember some time ago a small program written by Tom was created to stop Edge, and I think it worked. I saved that program, but I'm not sure if it would function with Bing on my Windows 10 system. Could you help me find it? Thanks for your assistance.

From the Microsoft page provided, it explains that automatically launching Bing on Edge startup is a problem. Various attempts to stop it failed until the cause was identified as a lock screen issue. When using "Windows Spotlight" as the screen saver, Edge launches and displays Bing images, appearing normal but functioning as a screen saver. To fix this, search for "lock screen settings" in the search bar and deselect "Windows Spotlight" from personalizing your lock screen.
