Add the unwanted sites on your add blocker list.

What I hate is that MS seems to think that everyone should use Edge and forces windows 10 to open some urls with edge even though you made another browser you default, then set all software attributes to use said selected browser. Yet some urls still open in Edge. I wish I could just uninstall Edge and IE all together.

There is a free app in the Store for Edge browsers called UBlock Origin. It seems to have a popular rating and is capable of running a background anti redirection algorithm.

I've not personally added any extensions so I cannot give a first hand opinion, but perhaps someone else in our forum uses it as the original app was for Google Chrome, and now it also supports Edge.

I use uBlock with Fire Fox. It does a great job with most, if not all browsers.
What browser are you running.
