That is easy enough to block or deal with.
At least there’s the option to remove it at all that the non tech people can now easily access.
I can't wait to see what this breaks and how the fix is to reinstall edge for all kinds of mundane issues.
Turns out edge is what renders the entire UI and uninstalling it leaves you at the console. Oh and you can't access files because the file system is an http server accessed via edge. But it does come with QBASIC, so there's that.
