Not on a windows machine, but would setting it to this work:

    data:text/html, <html contenteditable><head><title>Quick Note</title></head><body></body>

You can't set the new "New Tab" page to a specific URL w/o enabling the MDM "enrollment" settings the author describes. As a "home page" that URL works fine to get a blank page in Edge, but opening a new tab gets you the "New Tab" page rather than the "home page".
