To handle any type of status code related error whether it is 400 status code or any other except 500 status code use UseStatusCodePagesWithReExecute Middleware.
for 500 we use
if (env.IsDevelopment())
            {
                app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
            }
            else
            {
                app.UseExceptionHandler("/Home/Error");
            }
for 400 or other status code use this
app.UseStatusCodePagesWithReExecute("/Home/HandleError/{0}");
[Route("/Home/HandleError/{code:int}")]
public IActionResult HandleError(int code)
{
   ViewData["ErrorMessage"] = $"Error occurred. The ErrorCode is: {code}";
   return View("~/Views/Shared/HandleError.cshtml");
}

In a Definition manner, we can say that it is a middleware to directly throw an error to the end user instead it will check and respond to the end user accordingly.

A simple solution is to check for the HTTP status code 404 in the response. If found, you can redirect the control to a page that exists. The following code snippet illustrates how you can write the necessary code in the Configure method of the Startup class to redirect to the home page if a 404 error has occurred.

In Configure method of the startup class

app.Use(async (context, next) =>
{
await next();
if (context.Response.StatusCode == 404)
{
context.Request.Path = "/Home";
await next();
}
})
