Thanks. How to remove Edge components in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft? I have here EdgeCore, EdgeUpdate, EdgeWebView. EdgeUpdate Services still running in my system.

That's for Webview2, not the main edge browser. You should keep those files.

Hmm, in the EdgeCore folder I have fully worked Edge Browser 👀 This is normal?

Yes, it won't run on its own. WebView2 and edge share components and you can launch the Edge UI through that folder if you manually run it.
@ave9858 microsoft didn't seem to like this script in LTSC, so they kind of made it not work anymore
i'm not sure if this fixes it
if ($edgeClient -ne $null -and $null -ne $edgeClient.GetValue('experiment_control_labels')) {
$edgeClient.DeleteValue('experiment_control_labels')
}
wat
if you get that error edge is alr gone
post on the discord if u have issues with the script
Worked flawlessly! I can even install WebView2 without Edge reinstalling!
