Windows 10: Microsoft Edge Top Sites

I have a bit of a problem, in the Edge address bar are top sites that you have visited. I need to know how to turn that feature off for privacy reasons. Sure its helpful and saves you typing if you go to that particular website very often but what if you let someone use your computer and they see some of the websites you visit???

Top Sites Edge.

On my Favourites Bar, I have sites (like a family tree site) that I have to log into, and when I click a site, It opens and I`m already logged in.

BEFORE updating to Anniversary Update, when Top Sites appeared on Edge and I clicked them I was (like clicking the Favourites Bar) already logged in. This saves a lot of time.

Now, since the Anniversary Update when I click Top Sites, I have to log into everything. It is faster for me to just go back to the Favourites
Bar.

Even copying the URL of a logged in site, and then adding it as a new Top Sites doesn`t work. It still requires a log in.

Does anyone know how to fix this, as security isn`t a problem with most of my sites. With critical ones like Banks it is absolutely necessary to log in, and even My Favourites Bar still requires a log in for critical websites like these.

 

Edge Top Sites

Hello. An observation on Edge. The top sites function in Edge should offer a much faster route to frequently used sites than the traditional favourites list. Unfortunately it is rubbish for a number of reasons. Firstly, it isn't possible to drag URLs from
the address bar when adding a site. It isn't even possible to copy and paste a URL. Secondly, customised top sites are lost when clearing history, replaced with the usual Microsoft product placement that doesn't reflect my preferences (Daily hateMail - really?),
with the added insult of the difficulty in replacing because of the lack of a drag and drop or copy and paste function. Two reasons why I continue to use Firefox. Comments?

 

Turn on Guest Account, and then all you have to do is log out, then log Guest in, and whatever they do, won't affect your machine. This is the securest way.

 

Not really the answer I was looking for. I suppose Ill just have to be super careful of what websites I visit seeing that sometimes I lend my laptop to my clients (there usually isn't time for me to log out and for them to log in).
