I have done everything you have suggested and the problem still persists. I have used every settings icon there is. I have clicked on "turn of new msn" and still every time I sign into msn.com it still defaults to the "new" version. You suggested opening Edge and selecting msn.com on startup. I did this. It still reverts to the new version every time I restart my computer.
I want msn "classic" as my default home page.
Every time I go to msn.com, the "new" version is displayed on the screen. I go to the settings that I want the "classic" version to be displayed as my default. How do I get it to go to "classic" as the default instead of the "new" msn?
Mod note:
If a selection like "turn off New MSN" doesn't persist, see if you are blocking or deleting Cookies. A selection like this would be "remembered" in a Cookie.

I’m here to help you in resolving your issue
- Open Edge, Click the three dots (•••) > Settings.
- Go to Start, home, and new tabs.

or

- Also scroll down to Home button, toggle it on and set the same URL.

Visit this URL: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news
This will bring you a page with similar news and features but without the new MSN layout.

2025-04-14T14:21:43+00:00 I don't know what I did right but whatever I did brought the classic msn home page back. I continued to use the settings to use classic msn and also continued to provide feedback. I also restarted my computer and refreshed the page multiple times. Finally, yesterday, the 13th of April, it started displaying the classic msn upon startup. Thank you for your continued help and support.
