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.

    I followed his instructions too. It wouldn't uninstall. It's my understanding that it won't uninstall because Windows actually uses Edge as a GUI for several apps within the OS. I can understand that.

    What I can't deal with is how Microsoft charged me for Windows and then keeps changing my software/app choices simply so they can then make money off of my personal info...without my express permission. That's the part that's illegal and actionable in a court of law. I'm really serious about wishing there was a class action I could join to force them to stop trying to putt their corporate johnson in my rectum.

    I just want to uninstall it because I use the beta (edge for business), which is a lot more handy to separate personal from business sessions. But stupid teams keeps opening links on the standard edge. I want to uninstall it. I can't.

    I am on Windows 11 22H2, which is supposedly include changes to comply with EU's Digital Markets Act and should have included the ability to uninstall edge. Perhaps, MS won't learn until they get a big fine from the EU.
