    Why is every browser on my Microsoft Lumia 640XL with windows 8.1 redirecting me to other websites?

    Understood. Can you please check that the same thing happens after connecting to a different WiFi network/cellular data?

    From your explanation it looks like the sites are redirecting to ad pages which is a bit irritating. While there's no ad-blocker present in edge browser for that, you may send a suggestion about it via the feedback app on your phone. You could also try the
    new Opera browser app in the store which offers a built in ad-blocker.

    Not available in edge. You can try the Opera Mini app from store, it has an inbuilt ad-blocker.
