I don't know why in 2024 this is still a thing. There was a big uproar in the late 90's with not being able to remove Internet Explorer. MS said IE couldn't be separated from the OS. So the US government brought a lawsuit against microsoft. After the lawsuit, low and behold IE could be uninstalled. Why haven't they done the same with Edge by now? Probably because there's now money changing hands

For people with Lenovo brand computers you will need "Edge Webview 2" installed which are the base components in order to use the Lenovo Vantage system program that checks for Firmware/Driver updates. This is a minimal engine that makes the Lenovo Vantage program work without needing the full Edge installed. Other than that I haven't seen anyone "need" edge because hardly anyone uses the Microsoft Store. On Pro versions of Windows it will keep Edge off your PC if you set a registry entry because on Pro versions the option is respected because of business PC's

I prefer to have a clean tidy system, that's why I uninstalled or deactivated all these preinstalled by manufacture utilities. Instead I have an intel support assistant, that takes care of all essential components: processor, GPU (also intel), wifi adapter. That's enough to keep the firmware and drivers updated, all the rest is done by windows updates. Brand is not important. Only components are essential, so if you have AMD/nvidia components, you need something else

It cant be uninstalled, it resist being shut down in task manager (check the search process, there are about 7-9 Edge view processes running), and its heavy in the background using RAM, CPU, and internet resources. Its a real pain when you want a bloat free benchmark of the system, an upgrade, etc. I paid the full price for a trouble free OS not ads, spam, redirects, bloat. When the ads come I am going to run Linux as an alternative OS and if I like it Windows is out. I want to own my build.

The Edge app is still listed and in in place but I have it sitting in the background as it were and use Brave as my default browser.

I use unmodified Edge as my movie/show "streaming browser" for the monthly paid no-ads streaming service that I am signed up for on any given month, but that is it. Not a fan of Edge at all & its intrusiveness, but I suspect uninstalling it would be problematic & a headache in the making due to how deeply Microsoft has it integrated into Windows. I also dislike Chrome & won't install it on my personal PC (my work-supplied laptop has it though). I have always preferred to use Firefox (w/various add-ons) as my primary internet browser on my personal desktop build.

The last step for me to start actually uninstall edge stopping completely updates and ripping everything out of the system that spies to microsoft was their ways of future plans for copilot, and even more data collection that passes any imaginable respect of privacy, I was removing different spying tools before as well to keep computer cleaner but now I am ripping everything off and leaving nothing untouched that wont hurt my daily experience, it is astonishing how you go from 5-6 gb ram and 130-160 task to under 3gb ram and 70-80 task just after doing some simple cleaning from microsoft tracking...

Yeah windows 11 uses edge way more than 10 for its troubleshooters but actually mostly the webview runtime part. If you really don't want it to run the easiest way is just leave it but use a software restriction policy to block execution of anything in the folder. But even that's a little more tricky in 11 because 11 has superceded such policies with the newer app control or whatever it's called but you can revert back to SRP but that's a video on it's own 😂

For some reason, since last year. I use edge only. No 3rd party browser on my system. And it works flawless and swift!!!

So? what's the point of this video? you cannot uninstall edge on windows fullstop. Install your ff or arc or anything else and move on. People like you just create toxic environment for the hatred anyone who dare to use edge. How dare you?

I found the file "edge.exe" and renamed it to "edge.exe.old" Problem solved. It can not longer launch no matter what Microsoft does.

I agree with @JasonWestaway, I cannot stand the fact that this is forced on us. I can uninstall it with Revo Uninstaller Pro, , but I'd never uninstall it in fear of what Microsoft has made it tied into. I've just not put it on the Start menu anywhere in my Open Shell so as far as I'm concerned it doesn't exist. Nice upload again, thank you.

I live in France, God help me after the recent abomination, and have uninstalled Edge. But it keeps coming back. So Microsoft has run rings round the Brussels bureaucrats by saying yes, sure we'll allow uninstalling, but not telling them that it will be reinstalled continually.

I can't, because some paid apps use it as part of their software.

Uninstalling this nagware is one of the first things I do after installing Windows. Even if the user don't start it intentionally, it would load to memory on startup "to start faster" and pop up unexpectedly with some Windows functions that use the web and WON'T allow anything else. Only thing broken is Microsoft help and Microsoft troubleshooters, which are useless anyway (rarely finds the cause of a problem or suggest anything beyond "update drivers" and "reboot"). I'd rather have a useless non-working feature than having Edge nagging me for several screens for login into Microsoft so it can present me with irrelevant news and ads.

Do this at your own risk. Only way to delete edge is by booting with another os like linux on a pendrive or dual boot windows and delete the files manually. I have done this myself and it worked. Then reboot to the system and type edge on the search bar and there will remain a shortcut to it. Just locate the file and delete it. No more edge. Here is the files location. Delete both folders named Edge. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\

Windows never up until here lately required Edge. It's full of spyware, holographic images, keystroke logger, Windows Edge Runtime Viewer turns on the camera and microphone without your knowledge.
