    Windows Update installed Edge. Can I safely Uninstall it?


    Hi all


    I have Windows 10 Home edition (ver 1909).

    In one of the first Windows Updates after I got this laptop,
    Microsoft installed the Edge browser on this computer, without asking me, without me choosing anything.

    And that was despite the fact that I already installed a nice browser, which I like and use.
    (Firefox)

    If I goto the Apps and Features setting page,
    Edge has its Uninstall button Enabled.

    So I can click it, and uninstall it,
    the question is If it will stay uninstalled, or will it be again auto-installed by Microsoft, via Windows Update,
    without asking me....


    Anyone has experience with this?


    Thank you

    :)
