    Will someone please explain to me why I have to do this garbage to change back?

    1. Uninstall Chromium browser first
    2. Launch Registry Editor
    3. Visit - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate

    On the right side create 32-bit dword value and name it 'Allowsxs'

    Double-click and set its value data to 1. 

    If I wanted Chromium as a browser I would have done it myself.

    Do software people make changes just to do so or it to make life miserable for the consumer.

    I thought it was showing the new changes and going to give me the option. Nope. STUPID!!! Should have purchased a MacBook.

    while I was reading this issue, I was not really interested to go back to legacy EDGE, I am happy to

    use the new EDGE. Sorry about he misunderstanding. You can stop sending me notifications about this issue. Thanks.
