Internet Explorer is Evil: The Story (2010)
> Maybe I'm nuts, but the start menu's web search results seem to ignore default browser settings and only open in Edge
You’re correct on that, Microsoft created a new link type ‘microsoft-edge:’, so that no matter what browser you use. Query’s from the search bar always get sent to Edge. They pulled a very similar move with Outlook where it now opens all links in edge, instead of in the users default browser. But for now, you can still toggle that setting back.
If you want windows searches to open in your default browser, you have to use https://github.com/rcmaehl/MSEdgeRedirect
- default links open edge
- Windows 11 will respect default browser for system apps in the European Union

Oh fuck off. The reason doesn't even make sense.

https://github.com/rcmaehl/MSEdgeRedirect
That should fix it, right?
I use it for quite a long time now and it works with the search bar in the startmenu.

How do I uninstall Microsoft Edge?
I recommend using MSEdgeRedirect. https://github.com/rcmaehl/MSEdgeRedirect Edge will still be installed, but it'll never be used and even the Windows Edge links will redirect to your preferred browser. It works very well.

Bonus points if you use MSEdgeRedirect to completely circumvent Edge systemwide

Anyone For A MS Edge Lite Version?
This reddit really grabbed my attention because ever since I uninstalled the chromium edge browser from my windows 11 computers, which I might add that's actually very easy to do by using this application: https://github.com/undergroundwires/privacy.sexy I've been looking for something labeled as a 'lite' version but seemingly I don't think anything exists like that. :-(

Is there an accessible repository of open source software for Windows?
As much as I love Linux, I am forced to dual boot with Windows so I have access to the uni's student licenses (adobe photoshop, harmony toonboom, maya, etc.). I used privacy.sexy to cut off a lot of the bloat from my Windows installation.
