    Not through any of the conventional means.

    You’ve gotta find and manually take ownership of all its files then delete them all. You also have to remove it’s updater service first (the same way) or it’ll re-install itself immediately.

    The only reason it breaks anything is several system services like the general help dialog and news+weather are permanently hard-coded to ignore the default browser setting amd use Edge exclusively. There’s no good reason for this.

      Yeah, it is rediculous that they do that and I’m surprised they haven’t faced another antitrust suit for it.
