In the Edge browser on Windows, you can set Copilot as your default experience for new tabs. This feature is turned off by default, and many Edge users prefer it that way. However, if you're a regular Copilot user, it enhances your browsing experience beyond the traditional address bar. Learn how to enable this hidden Copilot feature for new tabs in Microsoft Edge .
Add Copilot as a new tab in Edge browser
Microsoft has added the Copilot chat interface to new tabs in the Edge browser (Edge Canary version). Since regular Edge users may find this feature disruptive, Microsoft is keeping it on by default, requiring manual activation as shown below.
You need to download Canary Channel from Edge's official website. While downloading, click Agree and download on the licensing page.
Once you install the advanced version of the browser, Edge Canary will open in the taskbar just like any other Edge icon. This won't interrupt your normal browsing experience, unlike the Beta or Dev versions.
Next, go to the Edge flags page by typing edge://flags. Here, search for “NTP Composer”.
For the first flag, NTP Composer , set it to Default . Change it to Enabled with experimental features . You will find more related flags starting with “NTP” like Chat Ranking , Composer Focus , and Copilot Search . Apply Enable to all of them.
Once you enable the flag, restart your browser. You should now see the Copilot chat window front and center. If you don't want to use it in the future, simply disable the flag or reset the Flags page to default.
Benefits of Copilot in Edge's new tab page

There are two additional benefits. Having Copilot on every new tab makes for a more natural browsing experience than regular browsers.
Since the early days of the Internet, the address bar has been a constant in web browsers. It might seem odd that Microsoft is making Copilot more prominent instead of the default address bar at the top, but when you think about it, it's a very useful change, at least for regular Copilot users.
