If two or more tabs are running, Microsoft Edge shows “Do you want to close all tabs?” prompt when you attempt to close the browser. The “Do you want to close all tabs?” prompt helps you avoid accidentally closing the browser when multiple tabs are running.

The “Do you want to close all tabs?” prompt, as you might know, shows an option called Always close all tabs option. If you check the option, the Edge browser will not show the prompt before closing the browser even if multiple tabs are running.
