Windows 10: Stop Microsoft Edge Endless Attempts to update on 20H2

Ever since I upgraded to 20H2 and my firewall keeps nagging me that Microsoft Edge Update is trying to connect online like every half an hour . Now you may wonder why am I not white listing it or blocking it indefinitely , is simply because I keep up this setting on a gaming laptop that I try to keep lag-less , so basically I try to spot notorious apps or services that may attempt to clog internet or cause CPU sudden peeks/hickups even if they were Microsoft's to shut them off the right way and now it seems like MS Edge is being that .

Of course I did allow it internet access few times but it seems there is no update happening and this is its behavior of checking at my end at least .

So bottom line , how to stop it the right way ? I could see it has a service and I can disable it but was wondering though if it has a software toggle at some place I can switch it off by .

Microsoft Edge has stopped woorking

Hello,

There may be a number of reasons why suddenly Edge would stop working. The first troubleshooting step that we can try is to run the troubleshooter for Windows apps. Check out
this link for more information and download link for the troubleshooter.

If the above step won't work, we also suggest resetting Edge. For this, follow the steps below:

• Close Microsoft Edge browser.
• On the Cortana search bar, type Default App settings.
• Click on Microsoft Edge (the list may not include Edge if your operating system is not on Creators Update.)
• Under Microsoft Edge, click Advanced options.
• Click the Reset button and confirm.
• Restart your PC.

Note: Your PC must be updated to the latest version of Windows for this troubleshooter.

Let us know how it goes.
