Edge - new tab focus behavior












2















Is there a way to let Edge focus on the address bar once I open a new tab?



I experience the following behavior:




  1. Open Edge


  2. Ctrl + t (new tab)

  3. Type e.g. www.myfavouriteaddress.com


Issue: The typing is ignored since the focus is not on the address bar.



Unfortunately I haven't found anything. Microsoft didn't answer on that.



Right now I work around it like that:




  1. Open Edge


  2. Ctrl + t (new tab)


  3. Ctrl + l (focus on address bar)

  4. Type e.g. www.myfavouriteaddress.com


I'm looking for a setting which let me change the default Ctrl + t behavior. Any idea?



Environment




  • Microsoft Edge 38.14393.2068.0

  • Windows 10 Enterprise




Update Feb. 7. 2019



Checked my issue again with the Microsoft Edge browser in version:




  • Microsoft Edge 41.16299.755.0

  • Windows 10 Enterprise


The issue is gone.
