2. From registry Editor Open Registry Editor by typing regedit in the Run prompt and pressing the Enter key. Navigate to the following path: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Edge Right-click on the right section, and choose to create a DWORD with the name as HubsSidebarEnabled Set the value as 0x00000000 to disable it.
