How to Uninstall/Reinstall Edge

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.

    Here are just a few things, 1) I consented to use Chrome and was not forced to 2) edge is not actually vital to these apps it's just the one they have coded in, if you actually knew CS you would know how silly it is to insist it's the only way it will work, and finally 3) the apps on ones phone that can't be uninstalled are limited to system coding lmfao not a random browser that tracks the entire computer even when it's not running but the computer is like edge does. You can force stop, send to dormancy, or simply remove the offending file, unlike Edge in every way. maybe you should learn up on CS before trying to act like a tw*t to make yourself feel important.

    If anybody's being condescending and trying to feel important around here, it's you. People are truly getting delusional and projecting what they're doing onto others. Take it down a notch, because you're being obnoxious. We're all upset about the extortion of Edge, but let's not take it out on each other. Microsoft is the offender. Get 'em!

    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.
