If the Bing Homepage Quiz has disappeared, won't load, or isn't crediting your Microsoft Rewards points, you are not alone. The quiz is a lightweight card built into the Bing homepage, so a few common settings, extensions, or account issues can stop it from appearing. This guide walks through the most frequent causes and the exact steps to fix each one.
Why the Quiz Sometimes Disappears
The Bing Homepage Quiz is tied to the daily image and is often available only for a limited window each day. Once you complete it, or once the daily image rotates, the card may vanish for your session. This is normal behaviour rather than a bug. If you only want the points, the Microsoft Rewards dashboard is a more reliable place to find the activity than waiting for the homepage card to appear.
The quiz can also be region-specific. Availability of quizzes, polls, and Rewards activities changes from country to country, so a quiz that a friend sees may not appear for you on the same day.
Quick Fixes Checklist
Work through these steps in order, as most issues are solved within the first two or three: refresh the Bing homepage; sign in to your Microsoft account; open www.bing.com directly rather than a browser new-tab page; disable strict tracking protection for Bing; pause script and cookie blockers; and try a different browser or an incognito window to rule out extensions.
Browser, Extension, and Cookie Problems
The quiz relies on scripts, cookies, and interactive cards. Ad blockers, script blockers, privacy extensions, and strict browser privacy modes can all hide it. Allow cookies and scripts for bing.com, then reload. If you use an extension that rewrites or cleans pages, temporarily disable it and refresh. Testing in a private or incognito window is the fastest way to confirm whether an extension is the cause, because most extensions are disabled there by default.
Edge New Tab vs the Real Bing Homepage
A very common mix-up: the Microsoft Edge new-tab page is not the same as the full Bing homepage. The quiz card lives on www.bing.com, not on the Edge start page. If you do not see the quiz, type bing.com into the address bar and load the full homepage rather than relying on the new-tab layout.
Quiz Not Giving Microsoft Rewards Points
If the quiz works but you did not get points, check that you were signed in to the correct Microsoft account before playing. Rewards credit usually applies only once per day per account, and only in supported regions. Open your Microsoft Rewards dashboard to confirm whether the activity was credited; sometimes points appear there with a short delay. Avoid scripts, bots, or automation, as these can put your Rewards account at risk and are against Microsoft's rules.
Still Not Working? Use the Rewards Dashboard
When the homepage card is unreliable, go straight to the Microsoft Rewards dashboard. It lists the day's quizzes, polls, and search activities in one place, and it is far more dependable than waiting for a prompt to appear on the homepage. Completing the activities there earns the same points.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Bing Homepage Quiz disappear after I play it?
The quiz is usually available for a limited time each day and tied to the daily image. After you finish it, or once the image rotates, the card may disappear for your session. Use the Microsoft Rewards dashboard to find it again.
Why is the quiz not showing in Microsoft Edge?
The Edge new-tab page is not the full Bing homepage. Open www.bing.com directly to see the quiz card, and make sure no extension or privacy setting is blocking Bing's interactive content.
Why didn't I get my Microsoft Rewards points?
Confirm you were signed in to the right account before playing, that you are in a supported region, and that you have not already completed the activity today. Check the Rewards dashboard, as points can appear with a short delay.
Does the Bing Homepage Quiz work in every country?
No. Quiz and Rewards availability varies by region, so a quiz may not appear for you even when it does for someone in another country.
