Slide the Ask Before Sending switch to the Off position and you will no longer be prompted by any site. Open the Site Permissions page in Edge Settings (edge://settings/content) and click Notifications. But if you'd prefer not to see any notifications, you can do that. Once you make a choice, Edge adds that site to the Blocked or Allowed list. Turn this switch off to prevent sites from annoying you with "Allow notifications?" prompts. Modern web designers have fallen in love with the option to push notifications through the browser, and the new Edge prompts you to allow or block those notifications the first time you visit one of those sites (and yes, ZDNet is one of those sites). You'll need to use a third-party extension (such as Infinity New Tab or Infinite Dashboard) to replace those options. Note that the service you select here does not apply to the search box on New Tab pages you configure using Microsoft's default options. You can use any of the predefined search engines, including Google, Yahoo, and DuckDuckGo, or click Manage Search Engines to add a custom search option. Scroll to the very bottom of the tab and click the arrow to the right of the Address Bar heading. If you prefer to use a different search engine for those requests, open Edge Settings > Privacy and Services. It should not be surprising that Microsoft's new browser sets Microsoft's Bing as the default service to handle search requests and suggestions when you enter a search term in the address bar. This set of extensions from the Chrome Web Store is a good starting point. If none of those options appeals to you, your best recourse is to find an extension that takes over the New Tab function. When you sign in to Edge using an Azure AD account associated with an Office 365 Business or Enterprise subscription, you can replace the Microsoft News content with shortcuts to Office 365 documents and services, but the Custom option isn't available.
