How do i change Browser for search results.
It's tested and working on my system. The source code is pretty clean as well, it basically involves setting a single registry key to run other browsers in place of edge. Would recommend.

It is disgusting how much Microsoft are pushing Edge! Another pointless and forced entry to my start menu...
You can nuke Edge, make everything open in your preferred browser, search in windows search and make it ropen in your preferred browser and even make the windows widget open anything you click on like the weather in your preferred browser. – https://github.com/HarshalKudale/NoMoreEdge
