Microsoft Edge is a Virus
-
So the latest Edge update silently changed my PDF default app from FoxIt Reader to the Edge browser. And when I went to change it back, it gave me a "Are you sure you want to" prompt. Has this happened to anyone else?
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.
I refer you to this software, which locks these things in place to some extent: actually quite effective. I think it does it using registry hacks: it's a one-time thing which doesn't install anything: Stop resetting my apps[^]

Microsoft keeps trying to shove Edge down everyone's throats just like they shoved their terrible update process that takes over a computer just when you are right in the middle of something important, that suddenly doesn't respond normally, they don't even give you the courtesy of telling you before hand. Oh for the days of XP where you had complete control over when updates installed. Why can't they go back to that?
