Remove MS Edge is a Windows-focused project that packages methods to uninstall Microsoft Edge using either an executable approach or batch scripts, depending on how automated or hands-on you want the process to be. It targets users who prefer not to keep Edge installed and want a repeatable removal path rather than manual digging through system folders and app packages. The repository highlights practical compatibility considerations, including that certain apps and features may rely on WebView components, which can affect software that embeds web-based UI. It also acknowledges real-world maintenance risks, such as Windows update behavior that can break or loop if the system expects Edge to exist, so it’s best understood as a power-user tool with tradeoffs. The project offers multiple removal “flavors,” including options that remove only Edge, remove Edge plus WebView, or focus on specific Edge variants, so users can pick a level of aggressiveness.
