Thank you.
Reported content has been submitted
I understand that I would like to uninstall Microsoft Edge. However, this browser as well as Internet Explore is a system resource and for this reason it is not possible to remove them. However, you can choose to disable the feature. To do this, use the steps below:
1. On the Desktop, simultaneously press the Windows + R keys to open Run;
2. In Run, type “APPWIZ.CPL” and click Ok, to open Programs and Features;
3. Under Programs and Features, click Enable or disable Windows features;
4. Deselect the Internet Explorer 11 item and click OK;
5. Restart the system.
I hope I helped, even more!

I can’t even do a search with Edge. As soon as I type anything in the search bar, Edge help comes up and creates multiple tabs. And it won’t stop doing it. It’s become useless and very irritating. How do I make it stop?

I just want to thank you for this solution. I have not tried it yet but you are the first person to give a reasonable response. I get that we cannot uninstall edge, but I hate it. The stupid microsoft community does not even realize how bad it is. for many years I have complained about their email. It is awful. I still cannot figure it out. You cannot use it. How they have tech support is beyond me so we are forced to use google which at least works. It infuriates me every time that stupid Edge hut shows up, takes over the screen and forces me to have to deal with taking back my computer. How can Microsoft be so stupid in some ways and so brilliant in others. But thank you again. We just want to be able to deal with it without doing something to our computer that has other consequences that get us into a different batch of problems.

The above fix works perfectly thank you.
But a bit annoyed that Microsoft are forcing the use of this browser without asking first. I appreciate they want people to use it.....but ask, don't dictate.
