How do I uninstall the Microsoft Edge "Update" on my computer? I accidentally installed it and I don't even use Microsoft Edge. I know I can't uninstall Microsoft Edge, but hopefully I can at least uninstall the Update. It really, really stinks Microsoft forces people to have Edge on their computer because it just takes up storage space, slows your computer down and the browser tracks your surfing history.

Do you suppose doing a "backup" would uninstall the latest update???
