    Try these steps in order:

    1. Check whether it is only Google in Edge.
      • Open the same Google page in another browser.
      • If it also fails there, restart the modem and router. If it still fails, the issue may be with the network or the website.
    2. Open Google in an InPrivate window.
      • If Google works there, the problem is likely cached data or cookies in the normal Edge profile.
    3. Clear Edge browsing data.
      • In Edge, go to Settings and more > History > Open history page > Delete browsing data.
      • Set Time range to All time.
      • Select the boxes and choose Clear now.
      • At minimum, clearing Browsing history and Cached images and files is recommended for page loading problems.
    4. Make sure Edge is updated.
      • Go to Settings and more > Settings > About Microsoft Edge.
      • Install any available update.
    5. Restart the PC.
      • A restart can clear processes that are interfering with Edge.
    6. Repair Microsoft Edge.
      • Close Edge completely.
      • Go to Start > Settings > Apps > Installed apps.
      • Select Microsoft Edge > Modify > Yes > Repair.
      • This requires internet access and administrative rights. Browser data and settings should not be affected.
      • If Modify is not available, Edge may be managed by an organization.
    7. If the issue happens only with Google sites after signing in to a Google account, try this specific workaround.
      • In Edge, open edge://flags.
      • Disable Device Bound Session Credentials (Standard).
      • This was recommended in a Microsoft Q&A case where Google domains stopped loading in Edge after sign-in.
    8. If Edge still crashes or pages still do not load, scan the device for malware and verify any third-party security software is up to date.

    Hi,

    What error message do you get when accessing these websites in Edge? Have you tried clearing the website data to see if that resolves the issue?

    To do this, go to Edge Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies > See all cookies and site data. Search for every Google website, expand its entry, and delete all cookies associated with it.

    If that doesn't help, please provide more details about exactly what happens when you try to access these websites in Edge, including any error messages you receive.

    If Google isn't opening in Microsoft Edge, try opening it in an InPrivate window first to see if an extension or cached data is causing the issue. You can also try clearing the browser cache and cookies, then restart Edge.

    If Google still won't load, check whether other websites open normally in Edge and whether Google works in another browser. You can also temporarily disable any VPN or proxy you're using.

    Do you get a specific error message, or does the page just keep loading? That detail would help narrow down the cause.
