Windows 10: Delete Microsoft Edge without problems?

Good evening, folks.

I have a question about Windows 10.

Last week I had to restart the computer for new updates, which I did.

So far no problem, but at startup Windows 10 installed Microsoft Edge by itself.

Now I wanted to ask if I can uninstall it without any problems or if it could have consequences.
