A PowerShell script that non-forcefully uninstalls or reinstalls Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 & 11.

---

⬇️ Usage

You can use the command below in PowerShell to launch the script. Alternatively, get the latest script from the GitHub releases.

iex(irm https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/he3als/EdgeRemover@main/get.ps1)

📜 Implementation in Scripts

Download the script and run Get-Help .\RemoveEdge.ps1 to see its options. You can either use the downloaded file directly with these arguments or put them into the snippet below:

iex "&{$(irm https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/he3als/EdgeRemover@main/get.ps1)} [ARGUMENTS HERE]"

Example

This would uninstall Edge, remove Edge's user-data, and install Edge WebView:

iex "&{$(irm https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/he3als/EdgeRemover@main/get.ps1)} -UninstallEdge -RemoveEdgeData -InstallWebView"

🫧 Clearing Edge Blocks

You can use the command below in PowerShell to clear all EdgeUpdate policies, including those that block the reinstallation and update of Edge or WebView.

iex "&{$(irm https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/he3als/EdgeRemover@main/get.ps1)} -ClearUpdateBlocks"

❓ Troubleshooting

If Edge won't uninstall, try:

1. Repairing Edge
2. Making sure that Windows is up to date
3. Making sure that Edge is up to date

If it still doesn't work, make an issue.
