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!
Hi N00byDoo,
What you are seeing is part of the Windows 10 Search feature. This feature processes your search keywords online and displays recommendations based on that keyword. That is why you are seeing Microsoft Edge. There is a way to disable this. What version of Windows 10 are you using (Windows 10 1909, 2004, etc.)?

No problem, N00byDoo. Thank you for providing the information I needed. Here is how you can disable Microsoft Edge from appearing in the search results.
- Download the registry file I attached below and save it to your desktop.
- Double Click on the file and click yes, then OK. This file will add registries keys to the registry (disabling web searches in Windows 10).
- Reboot your computer
Once your computer reboots, check and see if Microsoft Edge disappears in the search results. Report back and let me know if it works.

N00byDoo, you are welcome. I am glad that I was able to help you. Now I want to let you know, if and when you upgrade your computer to Windows 10 2004, follow this tutorial Turn On or Off Search online and include web results in Windows 10, as the registry fix I had given you will only work for Windows 10 1909 and older. The tutorial will also disable Windows 10 search feature. I tried this on my computer with Windows 10 2004, and I can tell you that it 100% works.
Once again, I'm glad to be of assistance.
