Remove MS Edge

Remove-MS-Edge is a script-based utility designed to uninstall preinstalled web browsers and the WebView2 runtime from Windows operating systems. It functions as a component management tool that leverages batch scripts to remove system packages and associated runtime environments.

The project includes a recovery utility to restore removed browser components from cabinet archives. This capability is used to resolve Windows Update loops and repair system update failures caused by missing browser components.

The toolkit employs system-level primitives including the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool, registry modifications for component deactivation, and administrative execution models to manage protected system files.
