There's your problem right there.

Get Firefox or Chrome.

Edge is good for devices with low memory (<3gb RAM), between 3 & 4gb Firefox is hands down the best, between 4-8gb it's a draw between Firefox and Chrome, and above 8gb Chrome pulls ahead if you plan on using a lot of tabs.

The reason for this is that Edge requires very low RAM but suffers when using multiple tabs, Firefox requires a rather huge amount of base RAM but grows only slowly with additional tabs and only starts to have slowdowns at 50 tabs or more (and even then only when trying to close them all), and Chrome is a hydra that eats RAM for breakfast but can handle 300+ tabs without any slowdows as long as you have RAM to spare.

Now, if you use the standard Internet Explorer on Windows 10 you need to set your computer on fire and rethink your life choices. The only reason it's still there is backwards compatibility to some companies who refuse to support real browsers.
