<\/span><\/h3>\nRemoving cache data might help fix pages having problems and also improve the browser’s performance. This is because cached data can end up taking precious storage space and resources and once it gets corrupted then it may affect the basic functions of the web browser.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> On Edge, click on the three dots<\/strong> in the top right corner.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Head over to Settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/strong> Go to Privacy, search, and services<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 4:<\/strong> Under Clear browsing data<\/strong>, click on the box that says Choose what to clear<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/strong> Select the items you want to clear. Make sure to check the Cached images and files<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Do note that deleting Cookies and other site data will log you out of most websites. Your browsing data will also be deleted from other synced devices.<\/p>\n
Step 6:<\/strong> In the Time range<\/strong>, select All time<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 7:<\/strong> Click on Clear now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Doing this will clear up all the cached data from your browser. Close the current window and restart the browser. Check if the error still shows up.<\/p>\n
<\/span>3. Reinstall Edge from the Control Panel<\/span><\/h3>\nIf your installation of the Edge browser itself seems to be corrupted then you can easily repair and reinstall the browser without losing your browsing data from the Control Panel.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Open the Start menu<\/strong> and search for<\/strong> Control Panel<\/strong> in the search bar.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Go to Control Panel and select the option Uninstall a program<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/strong> From the list of installed apps, locate Microsoft Edge<\/strong>.<\/p>\nStep 4:<\/strong> Right-click on Edge<\/strong> and select Change<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/strong> The User Account Control<\/strong> prompt will pop up, select Yes<\/strong> to continue.<\/p>\nStep 6:<\/strong> Now click on Repair<\/strong> on the Repair Microsoft Edge window.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
This will uninstall Edge and reinstall it. Your browser data and settings will not be affected.<\/p>\n
Step 7:<\/strong> Restart your computer<\/strong> once the reinstallation completes.<\/p>\nA fresh installation of the Edge browser will be added to your computer. Now you can try to open webpages.<\/p>\n
<\/span>4. Change the IPv6 Value in Registry Editor<\/span><\/h3>\nIPv6 may be disabled which is why the page cannot load in Edge. You can easily enable it from the registry editor by changing the value of the DisabledComponents.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Press Windows key + R<\/strong> to open Windows search<\/strong>.<\/p>\nStep 2:<\/strong> Type Regedit<\/strong> in the search box and click OK<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/strong> Press Yes<\/strong> on the User Account Control prompt<\/strong>.<\/p>\nStep 4:<\/strong> In Registry Editor, click on the address bar on the top and paste this file address Computer\\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\Tcpip6\\Parameters <\/strong>to navigate to DisabledComponents.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/strong> Here, double-click on DisabledComponent<\/strong> as shown in the image below.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 6:<\/strong> Set the Value name to 0<\/strong> and click OK<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Once you have changed the value, restart the computer<\/strong> and try using Edge.<\/p>\nIn case you are unable to find DisabledComponents in the registry editor then follow the below steps.<\/p>\n
Step 7:<\/strong> Go to the same address location mentioned above.<\/p>\nStep 8:<\/strong> Right-click on Parameters<\/strong> and select New<\/strong> then DWORD (32-bit) Value<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 9:<\/strong> Name this new value as DisabledComponents. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Now you can go ahead and change its value following the steps above.<\/p>\n
<\/span>5. Create a New Key for Microsoft Edge<\/span><\/h3>\nIf the above methods did not work for you then you can create the RendererCodeIntegrityEnabled key for Edge within the Registry Editor and assign it the correct value. Reportedly, this has helped a lot of users to fix the “Page is having a problem” error in the browser.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Press Windows key + R<\/strong> and type Regedit<\/strong> then click OK<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Allow permission to the User Account Control<\/strong> by clicking on Yes<\/strong>.<\/p>\nStep 3:<\/strong> In the Registry Editor, navigate to Computer<\/strong> ><\/strong> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE. <\/strong><\/p>\nStep 4:<\/strong> Here go to Policies<\/strong> and then Microsoft<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/strong> Right-click on Microsoft<\/strong>. Select New<\/strong> and then Key<\/strong>. Rename this key to Edge. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 6:<\/strong> Click on Edge<\/strong> and right-click on the blank area<\/strong>.<\/p>\nStep 7:<\/strong> Again select New<\/strong> and then DWORD (32-bit) Value<\/strong>. Name it RendererCodeIntegrityEnabled. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 8:<\/strong> Double-click on RendererCodeIntegrityEnabled <\/strong>and set the Value data to 0. <\/strong>Lastly, click on OK. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Now close the Registry Editor and open Edge to see if the websites are loading up properly.<\/p>\n
<\/span>6. Add Microsoft Edge to Windows Security Exclusions<\/span><\/h3>\nWindows security is a preinstalled virus and threat detection tool that comes with every installation of Windows 10 and 11. The tool provides complete security and protection against malicious programs but it may also block or restrict system apps like Edge which is why you might be facing the error. So you should exclude Edge from Windows Security.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Search for Windows Security<\/strong> from the Start menu<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> Go to Windows Security<\/strong> and select Virus & threat protection<\/strong> from the sidebar.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 3:<\/strong> Here, click on Manage settings<\/strong> under Virus & threat protection settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 4:<\/strong> Scroll down and click on Add or remove exclusions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/strong> User Access Control<\/strong> prompt will appear, select Yes<\/strong>.<\/p>\nStep 6:<\/strong> Click on Add an exclusion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 7:<\/strong> Navigate to OS (C:) > Program Files (x86) > Microsoft > Edge > Applications<\/strong> and select msedge.exe<\/strong>.<\/p>\nThis file might be located in a different folder based on your system.<\/p>\n
Step 8:<\/strong> Click on Open<\/strong> to add the program file to the exclusion list.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Adding Edge to the exclusion list will prevent Windows Security from messing with the Edge browser operations.<\/p>\n
