How to Uninstall/Reinstall Edge

Anonymous

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.

Did you follow Hahn's instructions before opening the Edge browser? I experienced that this only worked after Windows user log-in so that no Edge browser is active. The other option is to use Task Manager to "End" all "Microsoft Edge" processes before following the instuctions to remove.

I followed these steps (several times) but it has failed to uninstall.

Hello Hahn,

I have the same question BUT on Windows 10. Would you be so kind to confirm if there are any changes to the procedure?

Thanks
