But I'm skeptical, because MS wants Edge to be on our devices and is able to install it again.If you use a Linux distribution and want to install or uninstall Microsoft Edge on your computer, here is how you can do that. There is another method, supposedly with the correct uninstallation of Edge, but I haven't tried it yet, so I don't know yet. > To undo this process, simply rename the folder "Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe" again.
> The folder for Microsoft Edge is called "Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe". > Open the Windows Explorer with the key combination + and navigate to the folder "C:/Windows/SystemApps
Changing the default browser is usually enough and with this procedure you are on the safe side in any case. For example, the next time a function update is performed, Edge may reappear or even the update may fail immediately. if you rename the folder for the Browser Edge, the system won't find it anymore It is still in the system, but cannot be started anymore.īut beware: renaming a program folder can cause unpredictable problems. However, in this manual we offer you risk-free variants to get rid of the browser.ġ. We therefore advise you against any system intervention. Because they are so deeply integrated into the system, uninstalling them involves many risks. There is no uninstall option for these apps. Windows 10 installs several apps and programs automatically, including the Microsoft Edge browser. Under certain circumstances, a message from the User Account Control (UAC) will appear, which you simply confirm. Tip to avoid mistakes: Just copy the command line above to the intermediate line by pressing Ctrl+C and then Ctrl+V in PowerShellĮdge (Chromium) is now immediately completely uninstalled from the system. \setup.exe -uninstall -system-level -verbose-logging -force-uninstall In the Windows PowerShell (in admin mode) enter the following command: Now click on the menu item "File" (top left) in the Explorer and select "Open Windows PowerShell as administrator". On our test computer here:Ĭ:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\83.0.478.61Ĭhange here to the subdirectory "Installer", where the setup.exe is located. Open Windows Explorer and change to the directory where Edge was installed. This method of uninstalling is crap, because MS still reinstalls on a pending update, nevertheless it should be mentioned: There is only one problem, this fucking Microsoft doesn't want me to uninstall it! I don't want it, I don't like it, I don't want to be constantly forced to update it!
