Edge keeps crashing in Windows 11. I have already tried quite a few troubleshooting steps suggested here and it's still not fixed. The last suggestion I received before reinstalling Windows is to reinstall Edge. (Not repair/reinstall from the Add/Remove Programs menu, I've already tried that). I did this but it doesn't look like it worked. When I opened Edge after the reinstall all my tabs re-opened and I just don't think the reinstall worked correctly. Is there a way to uninstall Edge completely and then reinstall it? The option is grayed out in the Remove programs menu.

Hi,
If I were you, I'd run the System File Checker with the /scannow option to see if it will fix the Edge installation for you. If you can, go check this post out for instructions on how to fix it from a Powershell command prompt:
I' m assuming you have a working browser if you're reading this and posting here so...
Good luck
