    Uninstalled powershell and edge, now I have changed my mind


    The title says it all. I need to get those 2 things back, since I uninstalled them before thinking I wouldn't need them. My primary concern is with edge, I really need that browser back.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, I don't want to factory reset my laptop.

    Image Backup or maybe a Restore Point, or, wait for a new Build or Reset!

    I got powershell back after a reinstallation of Windows (due to unforseen bad stuff happening) but edge isn't coming back no mater how hard I try. I have followed all the stuff in the main post.

    Hi, could you clarify- did you clean install Windows, or do an in-place upgrade repair install? (The latter =log in and run setup.exe from a mounted iso or boot medium).

    Powershell is going to take the place of Cmd.exe. Edge Browser has some serious issues and there are better browsers out there such as Chrome and Firefox. Edge has been considered a perpetual Beta at this point.
