That temp file with the miscellaneous name may indicate there is malware on your PC, have you performed an offline scan with Defender or your preferred anti-virus?

Click the link below to download a small free utility that does not require installation.

https://download.sysinternals.com/files/Autoruns.zip

When the file downloads, unzip it.

Run Autoruns64 as Administrator

A

Select the 'Logon' tab at the top of Autoruns.

Please provide a screenshot of all entries on that tab.

B

Select the 'Scheduled Tasks' tab at the top of Autoruns.

Please provide a screenshot of all entries on that tab.

Thank you for the screenshots, I do not see any problem listed in the entries in Autoruns.

Have you scanned your PC in Offline mode to check for any malware on your PC.

Also, please provide a screenshot of the popup error you are seeing that causes Edge to stop responding.

Those two popup errors have different misc. names, that is usually in indication there is malware on your PC.

You do not need to disconnect form the Internet, open Defender, select the scans option and select Offline Scan, your PC will reboot and perform the scan outside Windows before Windows restarts.

That was very fast for an offline scan, what was reported was any malware found on your PC.

Okay, in that case, download the Microsoft Safety Scanner and perform a full scan with that.

If at the end of that scan it is indicated no malware was found, download the free version of Malwarebytes and perform a scan with that.

Windows 11 is 64bit only so that is the version you need.

The Microsoft safety scanner works in a different way to other anti-virus apps, if at the end it indicated no malware was found, then it could not find the malware.

Please provide Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST) logs for analysis.

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/farbar-recovery-scan-tool/

Note: If you are using Edge or Chrome, SmartScreen may initially block the download. Click on the three dots next to the warning and select Keep => Click the Delete drop arrow => Keep anyway.

If your computer's language is not English, rename FRST64.exe to FRST64English.exe
Run the tool, leave the default settings, and press Scan.
Zip the logs, FRST.txt and Addition.txt, then upload to a cloud storage service like OneDrive, Google Drive or gofile.io
Post the share link.
