    Thank you, it works!
    I checked it on Windows 11 24H2 Enterprise 26100.6584 (2025.09).
    Unfortunately, the folder with the Edge browser (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft) slightly shrinks after Edge is uninstalled (from 3 GB to 1.5 GB), but after uninstalling and reinstalling the new version of Edge, this folder increases to 4 GB, because the original Edge distribution is not removed from this folder via the Control Panel.

    Probably (IMHO), we can completely uninstall Edge (officially, via the Control Panel) only on Windows 10/11 LTSC systems.

    I know there are tools that will make your online install "EEA" aware and allow you to remove it..
    but on my previous post ( #11 ).. you can make a region US install uninstall Edge via the control panel , just as LTSC or Windows Server...

    It involves adding "US" to the IntegratedServicesRegionPolicySet.json file in the section to "Edge is uninstallable"

    Complicated? Yeah.. maybe between easy/average difficulty.. but EDGE sucks.. and I will go to all lengths to rid my system of this garbage :roll1:
