My biggest gripe with Edge

Overall, I have very little bad to say about Edge. It does everything I personally need it to do, and it does it really fast. But it drives me nuts that every time I start it, my window is either a different size or in a different place on the screen. Or both. Sometimes it's maximized, even though it never was when I closed it. Annoying.

my gripe is the pop up blocker. It sucks in comparison to IE. There is no "level" to set. It's just on. And I still get a lot of pop ups.

My biggest gripes so far are:
  • The Set tabs aside feature is frustatingly buggy, and unreliable. If I set tabs aside for the same site, it only keeps 1 or a random numbder of them
  • Missing 1Password, Imagus and Lazarus extensions.
  • Occasionally hangs and becomes very laggy on my Surface Pro 2 when I have many tabs open, running my Surface Pro's CPU and fans crazy. Oddly enough, closing the entire browser, waiting a couple minutes and reopening it with the same tabs and it works fine without running my Surface Pro's CPU and fans crazy.

I get barely any pop-ups with uBlock Origin installed and configured. Pretty amazing how it automatically closes most pop-up tabs/windows...
