Cannot get rid of blank page when logging on

[debby]

I hope everyone here had a very Merry Christmas! I do not know what happened to my computer, did get an update, however, that is not supposed to change things. Now when I click onto Google Chrome, a page comes up and says "about blank". I X it out and there is Google Chrome. How can I can rid of this annoying blank page? I have searched and searched and cannot get the answer. You guys are on top of everything so I thought I'd ask you. Can you tell me what to do...I need to get rid of this blank page? Thanks in advance!

Merry Christmas. You could search for your favourite home page such as MSN or others and then set it as your home page in Settings.

That's the thing. I have Google Chrome set as my home page but the blank page comes up first. Confusing me. I can't figure out how to get rid of it. Microsoft updated a few months ago and when I went to start page, instead of Google Chrome, it gave me Edge. I did figure that one out and corrected it. This, just no reasoning I can figure.

Try one of these potential fixes:

1) Go to menu - Settings. Scroll down to the "On startup" section and select either "Open the New Tab page" or delete about:blank from the web pages that open on startup, or
2) Open the page(s) you want displayed on startup. Then go to the same setting as above and choose "open a specific set of pages" - then "use current pages"
