Edge keeps popping up even after you've chosen another default browser. That will change in the future, but only if you live in Europe.
Microsoft makes it easy to change the default browser in Windows 11. That’s important if you require special features specific to one of the many web browsers that are available on a PC. Unfortunately, it’s not as simple to be rid of Edge entirely.
Recommended Videos The notes on the latest version of Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 23531 indicate a different behavior in the European Economic Area . Windows system components will open links in the default browser. If you’ve chosen Google Chrome as your system preference, for example, Windows will respect your choice, but only if you live in the EEA.
Edge runs on the same Chromium browser base code as Google Chrome and can even use Chrome extensions. Bookmarks are easy to import, so the transition is pretty painless.
