Microsoft has released Microsoft Edge 91 with major improvements, including when it comes to performance, but because it turns out, this latest version also comes with a bug that some people believe it was actually the intended behavior.

More specifically, Microsoft Edge now displays a prompt requesting users to update their browser settings, suggesting the switch to Microsoft Bring because the default internet search engine.

While this type of prompt is sensible to be displayed after the update, some users here on reddit claim the same message shows up over and over again for absolutely no reason. What's even more surprising is that some say they get to see this message even when Microsoft Bing is already the default internet search engine.

Only a bug

Worth knowing, however, would be that the event is simply a bug, and also the prompt wasn't supposed to appear repeatedly on Windows 10 devices.

A Microsoft Edge Community Manager said on reddit the team has already been investigating, though additional information seems to be required at this time.

"I shared your thoughts with the team to determine which may be happening here. They're curious to understand whether you are signed into an AAD account in Edge. I'll share this info together and find out next steps then," she shared.

In the meantime, if you too keep seeing exactly the same message, the simplest way to cope with it is to just close the prompt and stick with your current settings. Microsoft is likely to unveil an area in the future, though for now, the investigation continues and no specific ETA is available.

The bug seems to occur exclusively on Windows 10, using the other OS versions not affected, as the prompt shows up properly.
