To set a default profile head to Settings > Profiles > Multiple profile preferences (under the hamburger menu) and choose your default profile.

Microsoft has also added a “Phone and other devices ” section inside Settings. The new section informs users that Edge is available on multiple platforms. The section also has a QR Code which can be scanned and will redirect users to the Edge app on the app store.
