Windows 10: EDGE is ruining my browsing experience, it is changing its appearance

How do I get rid of what Edge has done to itself?? This is now happened to 2 PC running EDGE, it is forcing me back to Chrome. Somehow the look is completely different, puts a bar of links on the side, looses the open new tab feature... All I do is use it, dont go into settings to change anything, then a new tab appeared, saying show tab links on side as a tab on the left side, when I clicked the tab, I got this, and dont see how to go back, it did all that unbidden by me, now on another PC - - - Updated - - - I just tried resetting EDGE, and the tabs are all on the left side still. So does this mean you cant do anything to put it back where they were?
