Enable Microsoft Edge Side by Side browser experience in Windows 10

Did you already try uninstalling the update instead?

FYI:

• The new Microsoft Edge does not support the removal of this update.

Update for the new Microsoft Edge for Windows 10, version 1803, 1809, 1903, 1909, and 2004

Well, it is possible to recover the old Edge, even when you cant uninstall Edge Chromium normally. You need to delete both folders (you may need to take ownership first of the folder):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate"

Then you need to open elevated powershell and type Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml” -Verbose}
After that you can go into Programs and uninstall Edge Chromium and then old Edge reappears
And it is a good idea to install Edge beta because then you have both browsers without any need to edit gpo or registry. There is a method to block Edge Chromium update for registry and gpo too.

hello all

just wondering if the new 20H2 update calls time on this feature or is it still available afterwards

This bare-bones browser is built using EdgeHTML - it's not ideal, but it does work, is the real engine, and at least DevTools **can** attach to it:- https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/p/ja...r/9nblggh1z7vx
