  1. Block Edge from opening entirely


    I don't want to have to delete the program since it may be important for the system to function. I need to block it from opening or accessing the internet. I have some blockers installed on Firefox and Chrome that I use, but it's very easy to just type in edge in the search bar and go waste time.

    Is there a way to block it completely from opening?
