Microsoft recently rolled out the first stable build of its Chromium-based Edge browser to people all across the globe. Unfortunately, there’s no setting available using which users can add custom background to New Tab Page. As of writing this blog post, the personalize menu for New Tab in Edge Chromium is limited to Layout, Quick Links, Image of the day and other content settings. Fortunately, there’s good news coming for the users who want to set custom background in Edge New Tab Page. Microsoft finally added a new option using which users can replace Bing Image of the Day background in New Tab Page with Custom Image. The latest version of Microsoft Edge browser v86 has the new option. Google Chrome already has the same feature in the new customize menu for New Tab Page.
