    The Google Native Messaging entry is an integral part of Win10 and will not delete. I had same question earlier. Pertains to messaging between extensions from what I read. You may google for more info. My guess is MSN used Google's system as part of Win10.

    If you have Chrome browser installed it will also be listed under this entry. However, it can be deleted with the removal of Chrome browser, but the Native Messaging stays.

    Not sure about the com.microsoft.browsercore entry. Perhaps this is HP (your system) specific.

    Google Chrome keeps becoming Default Browser when computer restarts

    Clean install of Win 10, on HP 15-f233wm. only two browsers, Edge and IE. HP Support APP, I saved all the downloads of the software/driver from HP, installed one at a time. Ccleaner has a download on their install, I unchecked it so it wouldn't.

    Just for understanding, Chrome is listed as default under default browser (settings/apps/default) after changing to Firefox, and not just a "nag" from Chrome upon startup wanting to be default ? And when you browse, Chrome is the browser ?

    You may want to run sfc/scannow for corrupt files. Also, consider resetting/reinstalling Chrome.
