    remove Edge from Start menu recommendation? [​IMG]


    is there any way to make it so this doesn't show up anymore?

    All I could find to remove it involved it being pre-installed/download, but after the last update Edge was forcibly installed. I tried the "pre-install/download" solutions, but those didn't work.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    :)

    Attempting to remove EDGE from the Start menu alphabetical listing

    The shortcut is not listed in the start menu folders...

    And I'm surprised you see Edge at all if you've done as suggested..

    Attempting to remove EDGE from the Start menu alphabetical listing

    Thank you guys so much for the replies. So a bit of things I have tried was renaming the files so they should not launch. I have added the new file names in the GPO as restricted apps to not be able to be used but the edge app is still listed in the start menu. and just clicking on it rings up a dead edge window prompting you of the lack of internet connection. But if you type C:\ in the bar it will open a file explorer in the root of C. i have been fighting with this new image for about 2 weeks now. It is locked down very tight. And the final step is doing away with the Edge icon. If i could just permanently hide or delete that icon I would be thoroughly finished. Thank you so much for your replies and I did follow those steps which did help to a certain extent. But since the application is still installed I guess the app will be listed in the installed app listing.

    Edge disappeared and start menu not working on Windows 10

    Hello Richard,

    We need to do further investigation on your concern so that we can isolate the issue regarding Microsoft Edge and Start menu:

    • Have you tried to searching in Cortana search to check if Edge can be located?
    • Besides powershell, what other troubleshooting steps have you performed?

    In the meantime, you can download and run the
    Windows apps troubleshooter to isolate the issue on Edge.

    We also suggest that you download and run the
    Start Menu troubleshooter to fix common Start menu issues.

    We will wait for your response.

    Regards.
