Could someone PLEASE build an idiot proof way to permanently remove Edge from your system!?
Install Linux
It can not exist. Microsoft can and will bring it back if they want to. Unless you are also disabeling all windows updates, the computer will never be under your control. And disabeling windows updates ... lets just say there hasnt been a month without a 9-10/10 security vulnerability in a microsoft product in a long time.
