Can anyone shed any light on this? I'm on win 11 pro.

Should I just change browser? Thinking Opera GX...

Not enough information. All I can say is that I have never seen or heard of this happening. And searching for "Edge deleted pinned pages" sends me to this thread. In other words, it is not a widespread issue.

I will say, it would probably be better to use Favorites instead of pinned. If you run CCleaner of Disk Cleanup, or some other "clutter" cleaner, your Favorites will not be deleted but pinned sites will.

If me, I would keep Edge.

Are you sure your page settings didn't change?

Unfortunately, on any regular channel Windows editions, updates are liable to change a lot of settings without notice. There is a setting under edge flags to ostensibly disable this, but it hasn't been that consistent in my experience. Might also be some way to prevent it through group policy.

Nothing gets changed in Edge. I watch Youtube and lurk here that's it.

Firefox dude.
Used it in the past, like 2006. I'll just bookmark stuff instead.
