How do I quickly remove and uninstall Edge? Did anyone make a .reg or .bat file to do it all for you?

Apparently there was a method of Edge in the early days of Windows 10 but it no longer works. If possible at all it would require advanced surgery and the risks of doing serious harm to the OS would be high. It was never intended that Edge be removed and there is no provision to do this.
I would like to have it gone too. It is running in the background because when I run CCleaner, it says it has to shutdown Edge before it can clean.
Uninstall Tool can be used to easily uninstall Microsoft Edge, pretend that Brave Browser as seen in the screenshot is Edge. Anyone could forcefully remove Edge (or run the uninstaller from Uninstall Tool as one literally exists LMAO) and manually remove the left over registries and files.

I used this method. Seems to work.
Haven't had any issues, yet.
Removed EDGE November 30th 2021.
Please note- some who have removed Edge then find certain routine Windows updates fail.
If you choose to remove Edge and then find this happen, you might require significant time on someone's part to help you solve that. That would seem unreasonable.
Further: some links you might click on within Windows insist on launching Edge- they do not respect your default browser choice.
Any major Windows upgrade or in-place upgrade repair install will reinstate Edge.
