I use Custom New Tab, a Microsoft Edge extension that allows me to change the new tab page to https://www.google.com. For years, I've been browsing normally, and every time I open a new tab, instead of being in the search bar, my cursor automatically focused on the address bar at the top of the page, so that I could type in it without doing any other inputs after opening a new tab.
Just a few hours ago, for whatever reason, this stopped working normally. Now, every time I open a new tab, my cursor automatically focuses on the Google search bar, which is not what I want. I have tried restarting Edge and rebooting my computer, and I've made sure that the "Set automatic focus on address bar" setting in the extension options is enabled. There is seemingly no reason for this to have happened, as neither Edge nor the extension updated today.
How to I make the new tab cursor behaviour change back to the way it was before - that is, automatically focusing on the address bar?
