Windows 10: Why did the windows 11 download cause hundreds of tabs to open?

Hi!I was recently having issues with my taskbar on windows 10, so I decided to upgrade to windows 11. Once the install had finished and my PC launched, it instantly opened at least 40 chrome tabs, as well as multiple file explorers and other applications to the point of my PC just outright freezing. No taskbar is visible and i’m not able to do anything with it, i’ve tried turning it off and on at the plug, and nothing is working. Does anyone have any suggestions for this?

Windows Edge Opens Hundreds of Tabs

Please help. no one has an answer. Windows Edge will, totally at random, open up hundreds of tabs going to Microsoft Edge Help.
Multiple virus scans and malware found nothing. Resetting Edge did not work. Resetting Window 10 did not work.

REINTALLING windows 10 from a DVD did not work. I am not sure if we reformatted the HD.

Any ideas?

I stopped using Edge and only use IE now but Edge will open by itself.

 

Windows Edge Opens Hundreds of Tabs

I doubt that all the reinstalls will help, because we are getting exactly the same problem, and the computer is only a few weeks old. Hundreds of instances of Edge showed in the Task Manager when I looked there to see why the computer was held up. When I returned to Edge, all the tabs became visible, all pointed to the same page of Microsoft Windows tips. It's a bug, probably generated by some failure in an ad window that keeps trying to reload and triggering the automatic opening of a 'help' page. Good luck, sorry you had to do all that re-installing and stuff, but I bet it makes no difference.

KB4038782 causes IE11 to not open

We suggest getting the update then troubleshoot Internet Explorer if the issue continues to persist. Resetting Internet Explorer may help resolve the issue. Follow the steps below:

• Open Control Panel.
  
• Open Internet Options.
  
• Go to Advanced tab.
  
• Click on the Reset button.
  
• Click OK.
  
• After the reset, reopen Internet Explorer to check if the issue still persists.
  

Keep us in the loop with the result.
