Why does Bing open whenever I launch Chrome?

Whenever I try to open Chrome, a Bing page appears automatically. I already removed Bing as a default search engine, so I'm not sure why Chrome is still opening it or where to change that behavior.

Bing may be set as Chrome’s startup or homepage rather than the default search engine. Open Chrome’s settings, find the “On startup” section, and choose “Open the New Tab page” or specify the page you want. Also check the homepage setting and remove the Bing address if it’s listed there.

If Chrome was set up by importing settings from Microsoft Edge, it may have carried over Bing as the page to open at startup. Go to the three-dot menu, select Settings, then open “On startup” and replace the Bing page with a new tab or your preferred homepage.
