It’s off by default.

Edge keeps reinstalling because it powers lots of other things in the OS. Removing it breaks other things, which is why so many people on here think that Windows 11 is “broken” or “buggy” - they run random “debloat” programs and completely fuck up their OS.

For now.

Also fuck edge for so many reasons, like ring zero access. It's "used by (not "powers") other things in the os by design so that they "can't " comply with EU rules(and more).
