Simple is best. Pin Favorites and New Tab is a lightweight extension that can offer you a concise new tab with productive functions, including search, favorites, pinned top sites, personalized daily recommendations, most visited sites, etc. Features:

  1. Respect. We show great respect for your privacy. All data are your own. Your favorites, pinned top sites, and search engine settings are stored in your Microsoft Edge account, rather than uploaded to a private cloud. In this way, they can be synchronized across devices you've signed in by Microsoft Edge.
  2. Innovation. You can pin your favorite website or web page to the new tab with just one click, with no tedious operations. All the pinned items are stored in the "Other favorites/Pinned_TopSites" folder. You can even manually edit the favorites within the folder, and then the favorites will be presented in the new tab. The innovation is simple, yet the user experience is improved.
  3. Tradition. Old habits die hard. You can add a site to your favorites in the popup window in exactly the same way as the native operation in Microsoft Edge. Your habits are kept maximally.
  4. Convenience. You can pin the top site to a new tab, and open it later in the current tab, in a background tab, or in other ways. The new tab will be your personal web portal.
  5. Personalization. The new TAB incorporates a personalized daily recommendation module. Based on your browsing histories and favorites, the module can push relevant web pages to a new Tab every day. The recommendation module is powered by Microsoft's Bing search engine. The module only submits your browsing histories and favorites to Bing anonymously, without uploading any identity information. We do not collect, store or analyze any of your personal information, including account, email, password, browsing histories, favorites, access logs, etc. In the extension's options page, you can always turn off recommendations completely. Since you are using Microsoft's Edge browser, you should definitely trust Microsoft's Bing search engine.
  6. Productivity. The most popular search engines are collected. You can search web pages, images, videos, news, and even locations on a map, in the new tab. You can switch search engines, and the preferences will be applied and synchronized.
  7. Evolution. Product development will not stop. New features will be introduced, such as wallpapers, themes, weather, notes, customizations, etc. But most of all, improving and enhancing favorites management is our greatest pursuit.

Tips: You do not need to pin the top sites from scratch. Put the favorites into the "Other favorites/Pinned_TopSites" folder, adjust the order as you wish, then the favorites will be presented in the new tab.
