Windows 10: How do I allow important updates to Windows 11 and prevent Microsoft from changing my...

Almost every time Microsoft updates my computer, I have to restore my previous favorite settings. If this continues I will stop using windows and go to Apple. I want important, needed updates. I don't want Microsoft meddling with my favorite/default settings. Stop hijacking my computer! How do I get just the updates to Windows 11 without allowing changes to my settings?

IE 11 Cannot Import from Edge

Hi Nicholas,

As a workaround, we suggest you to export favorites from Microsoft Edge into a .html file and afterwards, import the .html file to Internet Explorer 11.

Here are the steps:

• Open Microsoft Edge.
• Click on the three horizontal dots on the upper-right corner of the Microsoft Edge window, and then click on
  Settings.
• Under Favorites, click on the View favorites settings.
• Under Import or export a file, click on Export to file.
• Select the folder where you want to save the .html file of your Microsoft Edge favorites, and then
  Save.

Once you have the .html file of your Microsoft Edge favorites, follow the steps below on how to import them to Internet Explorer 11.

• Open Internet Explorer 11.
• On the menu bar, click on File, and then click on Import and export.
• In the Import/Export Settings window, select Import from a file, and then click on
  Next.
• In the next window, click on the checkbox for Favorites, and then click
  Next.
• Browse and open the .html file you want to import, and then click Next.
• Select Favorites to import to, and then click Import.
• Once done, click on Finish.

Hope this helps.
