  • EdgeDeflector

    A tiny helper application to force Windows 10 to use your preferred web browser instead of ignoring the setting to promote Microsoft Edge. Only runs for a microsecond when needed.

    There are third party programs that can solve this issue (I haven't actually tried these myself, so caveat downloador or w/e.)
