With them sunsetting IE what's the alternative? Surely there should be a browser that cannot be uninstalled right? I agree with the rest of your issues, but if Edge is ever to completely replace IE it should remain installed no?
- beagle3 6y agoFirst, they haven't sunset IE yet. If the same update uninstalled IE, you might have had a point. Second, putting the icon everywhere in your face is monopolistic behaviour. In Europe, for a while, Windows came without a browser installed, and let you pick one to download upon install. This is the non-monopolist way to make sure the user has a usable browser. Also, that user already had a self-updating Firefox, self-updating Chrome, and manually-updating Safari on the same machine.
