    Did you ask at Chrome forums to see if it's a known issue there?

    Ok, now i've done everything i could to try and fix this problem.

    I've gone to my phone, turned off the enhanced safe browsing by gmail and then logged out every session i had except on my phone.
    Then gone to my PC, cleared the browser's data and gone to apps, to reinstall the Edge browser.
    Logged back in on my pc using Edge browser but it still reflects as Chrome.
