    You really can’t uninstall edge in Windows? I knew that was a thing with IE back in the day.

      You can uninstall the newest version of edge in Windows. The newer edge is chromium based and it seems you can remove it now. However the previous version of edge that was built into windows could not be removed with traditional methods.

        You can’t uninstall edge without breaking things such as start menu search, widgets, bing AI, The upcoming co-pilot, and a lot more. I’ve personally been battling for people by creating MSEdgeRedirect, but there’s been two to three attempts to break the project so far.
