What if you've removed Edge from your system?

I didn’t think it could be easily removed (yes - I appreciate the audience here) - and if removed, it is so ingrained into the OS I expect the problems it’ll cause would be incredibly frustrating…

Microsoft's cramware is always "inexorably integrated at the deepest of levels", all the way back to Windows95 when they shoveled IE in OSR2

And it's always a 100% complete lie, and abusing their monopoly position.

It's not a lie that mshtml.dll was the IE (trident) renderer. And it's not a lie that it was a dependency for a number of OS features.
