Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
I installed the new Secure Edge browser. Big mistake. How can I go back to the old one?

Hi MorganRiley
at the moment Microsoft allow us to uninstall Edge chromium which will automatically reinstate legacy Edge.
settings -> apps -> apps and features
click on Microsoft edge and click the uninstall button
I am trying to go back to my old Microsoft edge and it wont work
Has anyone had a problem using this method. I dont want to end up with a mess.
You can eliminate it temporarily this way BUT IT WILL BE BACK!!!! I was guided through this method of removal by tech support and two days later it was back on my computer. MS has lost my business as they did not give me notification beforehand that they were going to force an unwanted and unnecessary edge update on me that made me unable to use my computer for 30 mins just as I needed to log on for work. There are problems with it in that the font is uneven - some of a letter is dark and some is light - A STRAIN ON THE EYES TO READ - it looks like italics. I have spent hours on the phone with agents and because no agent gave me a case number it can't be escalated. They only propose taking total control of my computer to get rid of it so it won't come back - I said no as it would compromise my security. I was told by an agent when I complained a few days ago that they have had problems since rolling this out a few weeks ago.
Here are the main reasons why APPLE will be my next operating system:
MS never notified me that they would be doing this kind of update.
MS never gave me a choice if I wanted this or not and what the benefits were- I didn't want any new features - I would have said NO.
If I HAD CHOSEN to get it they should have given me the ability to do it at a time of my choosing so as not to tie up my computer when I'm supposed to start work.
I can't believe a large publicly traded company would treat its customers this way. I can't get my money back for this operating system but MS will never get another cent of my money.
