It's easier to uninstall malware than Edge

It's easier to edge than to uninstall malware (iykyk)

Depends on what the malware is and how well made it is

@@melongamer2749truer words have not been spoken

@@Munchyro erm, what the siigma just happened?! Heehee hee hah! Sorry, I’m not funny

That's the thing, Microsoft edge is government military grade malware.


Also another HUGE issue. Even for people who WANT to use edge uninstalling and reinstalling is a pretty common troubleshooting step. So if edge breaks you're out of luck. The Microsoft store was 100% broken for me for about 2 years and I couldn't uninstall it and reinstall it to fix it just like you couldn't with edge. I basically just had to wait until some random update re-wrote whatever file was broken/corrupted and it randomly started working again. Microsoft needs to realize that doing stuff like this makes people LESS likely to use their web browser. Not more likely. Sure have it install with windows, have it shortcut itself on the desktop, and have it give a little "You sure you don't want to try edge?" pop up when you go to download firefox or chrome. But anything more than that is scummy and borderline malware IMO. If you have to go into the registry to uninstall something then I consider it malware.

i had a glitch on my pc once where the microsoft store kept opening and closing itself rapidly, this made my pc unusable. and i had to contact microsoft support to uninstall it so i could use my pc again

Once i uninstalled the edge, after that day i cant play minecraft becuse that minecraft need edge or connected to it some how!  And mc pc start to make weird things like being slow and programs dont open  and i didnt downland any thing like its not a virus or anything, its edge! So i need to reset my pc. Screw you microsoft!

@@YenilmezcrowTR are you a bedrock player?

@@YenilmezcrowTRa lot of Microsoft store apps are actually web apps. SoundCloud for example. If you install it and right click while in the app, it will pop up with the right click menu for Microsoft edge along with the options for extensions… what it uses in called Microsoft Edge Webview, an intergrated striped down Microsoft edge API for running websites locally without the tabs and menus that take up the screen.  It’s in the same folder as edge, so when I deleted it all, it also broke SoundCloud. The Microsoft store version of the MineCraft launcher might be the same way.

Your right that it makes the browser worse but they definitely wouldn't be doing it if it made people less likely to use their browser. This only affects the people who got their browser or ms store messed up


4:02 I think Firefox is better in this regard because it can somehow set itself as the default browser for all these file types without user interaction.

They are very ambitious to be back to no. 1 from the fall of IE


Firefox can automatically set itself as default on 11 with one click. They reverse engineered the API.

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe i have a computer who does that


7:08 That's not a leftover of the now-uninstalled Edge Chromium by the way. That's a leftover of Edge UWP. You know, the now fully obsolete, useless, and non-functional version of Edge that predated the switch to Chromium? That thing is still part of Windows 11, albeit in a very crippled, forgotten state, to what should be no one's surprise by now.

You need to edit the AppX repository database with an SQLite editor to unlock the ability to uninstall that one too, and then there's removing the Internet Explorer optional package leftovers using install_wim_tweak. After that, all visible leftovers of Microsoft web browsers are gone for good. It should now follow as common sense that if you were to forget to install, or uninstall any alternative browsers, you'll have no web browsers on your Windows machine, period. As it should be.

Not to mention if you wanna debloat further, it might be helpful to start with a uupdump-built ISO of Windows 11 made on a Linux OS, since that one, conveniently, doesn't support provisioning the default appx packages into the ISO, meaning you start with no UWP apps aside from the truly critical system ones, like the start menu and Configuration apps. Edge UWP is still in that special top-most critical list, so you still have to manually delete it, but it's progress.

@@AyushTH Well, they already hide Edge UWP automatically when Chromium Edge is present, so why not do the same with Edge Chromium when any other browsers are installed?

You know, the same way Windows Defender already disables itself when you have another AV on?

Better yet, have an open WebView provider mechanism like Android that allows you to choose what browser is used when software needs to embed a web renderer inside its UI.

Edge automatically reinstalls itself during Windows and Visual Studio updates, takes over the desktop when a new user first logs on, tries to force users to complete its setup process, then sneakily adds itself to autostart and remains in the background as part of its "Fast Start" feature, even though most people will be using other browsers, and Microsoft intentionally made switching browser associations more cumbersome. And there's probably other sins I haven't used Edge long enough to find out.

It's awfully intrusive, and honestly pretty pathetic at this point. No wonder the thumbnail gave MS Edge a Potentially Unwanted Program malware moniker.

@@3lH4ck3rC0mf0r7 It's Micro$oft, what do you expect? The entire company belongs in either r/crappydesign or r/assholedesign. There is no in-between.

like how not only they included a windows 10 leftover (legacy edge) but also a windows 7 - 8 leftover (ie). ie is obsolete no one uses it aside from memes and the legacy edge is pile of shit. and not to say about chromium that is the entire landfill

@@Markandpreston I don't think you can. It's completely broken, as far as I can tell.

That version of edge is legit IE with extra steps

Doesn't this also reveal the way Microsoft's programmers for hire work? Each one having no big picture awareness of previous programming work. The result being this mish mash frankenstein mess. Morale must be down the toilet at Redmond; programmers know when they are being told to make anti-choice and anti-consumer trash like this.

@@musicalneptunian Not really. There are tons of programmers out there who couldn't care less about the end-user. Microsoft has been like this since its inception. They were accused of stealing code from DR-DOS to make MS-DOS, have placed Internet Explorer in a privileged position in Windows since IE's inception in '95, which was ultimately the death of Netscape Navigator, and Windows was always this barebones, inflexible piece of crap that required tons of extra software and direct registry modifications to be usable.

If you ever read any of Microsoft's old leaked emails circa '91, you know they were always evil. They know it, and they only hire complacent folk who either don't care or won't have the balls to complain. They had several encounters with the law over the years for anti-competitive behavior. And every single time they settled for a fine in cash money. Because the USA's legal system allows criminally rich people to silence the law by giving it hush money.

Ever heard of EEE? Embrace, Extend, Extinguish? That's how they view competitors to this day. In my eyes, they are criminals, and I think it's morally right to sabotage Microsoft on as many things as possible.

Now I wonder if you can somehow run Edge UWP on the latest version of Windows 11

Saying that linux is for "quiet kids and nerds' doesn't really prove anything. It's not even true, Linux is usable by basically everyone, with distros tailored to all kinds of people. Windows is not "Obviously superior", same way that Linux isn't "Obviously superior" either, while yes, I do believe that Linux is better in most ways, there are some ways that windows shines, but most of them are not through windows itself being better, but simply because it's used more.

Windows has a way bigger market share because Windows comes pre packaged, pre installed, pre shipped with most computers. Any computer that you buy, if it's prebuilt, which is most computers bought by people nowadays, come with windows. Microsoft specifically gets contracts with schools and retailers and companies to have windows on their devices, with no other operating system as a choice. That is clear cut, a monopoly that windows intentionally started and continues to hold. Just because they have the money to have their OS pre packaged with most new devices, doesn't mean it's superior.

If you use Linux, you'd find that it isn't nearly as bad, or hard to use as people say. Hell, there's linux mint, which is, in my opinion the most usable linux distro for basically anyone, even grandmas, which, grandmas do use it. Seriously, most of the stigma against linux is people parroting others' opinions, without even looking into the OS themselves.

Also, Linux runs in basically every home. Your internet runs on linux, the servers you connect to access the internet are usually run on linux, etc. Hell, windows uses code from the Linux kernel to run it's own operating system. While yes, the commercial marketshare is low, it's due to the reasons I outlined above.

It's not that hard to remove Edge right now. But in the future this is probably going to change as they integrate the browser tightly into the system causing it to lose functionality if uninstalled.

Windows 10 still has the legacy non-Chromium Edge that it will revert to if you remove the Chromium Edge, so you’ll have to delete that too in C:\Program Files\WindowsApps.

I have to admire how MS puts out new versions before the end-of-life tbh, so before then the only benefit is which GUI is preferred.

the Legacy Edge seems to persist up to 20H2 only; in the 21H1 and up its core files have been removed in that location

IDK about 11. But On windows 10 enterprise LTSC edge is still a pain to uninstall but IE is still hiding in there if you want a default browser to just swap to.

@@akramabunahla3059 deep-cleaning Edge will most likely break Windows Update; you'll continue to receive updates normally until there's an update that references Edge (such as in a cumulative update) - at that point you'll get an error code with whatever KB package can't find Edge. It won't break Windows but Windows Update may end up perpetually stuck in a loop with the same set of packages failing - and any further updates with a dependency for that package won't show up.

6:30 was the uninstall using Uninstall Tool necessary? or did you cut away on purpose to show the cmd command?


If you want to try another method, go to ‘Windows (C:)’, ‘Program Files (x86)’ and find the folder called ‘Microsoft’. Delete everything in it (you'll find all the MS Edge stuff in there) and then delete the folder itself. Empty your recycle bin and restart your computer. This method has kept my PC free of Edge for seven months now (as of end of July 2023) and the PC still works perfectly. Before this, Edge would reinstall itself every few days and I could only get rid of it temporarily with the "IObit Uninstaller" free software. I'm a retired plumber, not a PC expert, but I hope this helps you.

The most insulting part is sometime after this video was uploaded, some genius at Microsoft decided to break the uninstaller such that neither using the uninstall option you enabled through regedit - nor 'setup.exe --uninstall --force-uninstall --system-level' - would do anything outside of a UAC prompt requesting admin privileges. I have confirmed this with Microsoft Edge version 107.0.1418.35 but if anyone has noticed the same behaviour with versions 104, 105, or 106, then feel free to mention said version of Edge with the same behaviour.

is this a real thing and not some freak incident because of something you broke earlier to uninstall it?


This is just one of the reasons I switched to Linux after more than 10 years of using Windows. The amount of tweaks you have to do to have a usable system is crazy.
Seriously, it's almost like Microsoft WANTS users to stop using it.
If I HAD to use Windows, I would probably switch to Windows 7, because every version released later on only worsens the user experience. More telemetry, more lazy GUI's slapped onto archaic code and more data siphoned from the user.
I understand if people HAVE to use Windows for a certain purpose (the adobe suite for some reason, multiplayer gaming with anti-cheat or work-related programs), and if all someone does is sit in their browser, Windows is perfectly fine for that. But the moment I decide I want my system to work differently (maybe I want custom shortcuts or a different theme or I want to use the command line) I'm almost always met with the need to install some program from a website I've never heard of, or I have to completely corrupt my install to the point that I can't get the newest updates.
Yes, that's something you have to do if you want to theme "your" Windows.
It's sad to see a good operating system turn into a pile of lazy code and ads, and I hope that Microsoft one day makes such a huge mistake that it'll completely ruin the market share, because that's pretty much where they're headed right now with the decisions they're making.

Not to mention it's an unfair comparison because you're giving Linux software additional consideration you didn't give to Windows.

@@kintustis Never said that. Of course there is open source debloating scripts, but they have a lot of lines I'll have to read, but 3 or 5 simple commands on Linux? Easy.

@@kintustis You can't really compare a Windows debloating script with Linux commands, debloating scripts are complex, especially on Windows while a simple xrandr --newmode and xrandr --addmode are easy to understand

@@kintustis Not a programmer to get deep into it, but if a program is open source it will be trustworthy and if something goes bad there will be forks of it, not to mention that will most likely run natively on Linux (even though some games are proprietary the engine they were made is open source, like renpy, so it can run even if the dev didnt distribute to Linux by adding some libraries). So yeah, it does matter.

Well, Bill Gates left in like 2008. Windows 7 was good because they we're trying to make Windows. but after that it went down hill, if only Bill was still CEO.
