AskWoody MVPMicrosoft Edge Remover v2.5.1
Revo Uninstaller does a fine job.
Always create a fresh drive image before making system changes/Windows updates; you may need to start over!We were all once "Average Users". We all have our own reasons for doing the things that we do to our systems, we don't need anyone's approval, and we don't all have to do the same things.1 user thanked author for this post.

AskWoody LoungerVirusTotal results may make some nervous)
In my case, the concern is Edge integration into the Windows system MAY result in unexpected issues (we’ve seen very recently that 3rd party developers were caught by surprise causing system problems when Microsoft updates something).
Use Autoruns and search for ‘Edge’.
Disable the entries the related to Edge and Edge update (I disabled 9).
Block entries in your firewall just in case.
Check again after Windows updates (in my case, one update in about six months reenabled some startups).
