With the Windows 10 Creator’s update, Microsoft added a “Open in Edge” button beside the “New Tab” button in Internet Explorer.
The “Open in Edge” button can be frustrating and confusing to users. Here are the steps to disable the “Open in Edge” button.
Open Internet Explorer and click the Gear icon in the top right hand corner of your browser.
Then Go to Advanced and then check the box: Hide the button (next to the New Tab button) that opens Microsoft Edge. Save your Settings.
Close Internet Explorer and reopen. Your “Open Edge” icon should be gone!
