I installed the new Secure Edge browser. Big mistake. How can I go back to the old one?

- Uninstall Chromium browser first
- Launch Registry Editor
- 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.
I agree. I kept ignoring the prompts to change to the new Edge, so they slipped it in on an update without telling me. Now, I want my old Edge back and can't uninstall it. Why can't they ask yes or no if you want something and then leave you alone????
