    I always bypass ever launching Edge by installing with winget install mozilla.firefox

    Or just install Linux.

      My custom Windows 11 installer doesn’t even have Edge - not even the WebView component. It might have trace files in the system, but they can’t be opened or scheduled to run even with elevated privileges.

      Zero Edge for me.

          That’s probably because you’ve installed a full install and removed it later (with inherited permissions or using TrustedInstaller) in which case several things do indeed break.
