Using latest Windows 11 Pro with a firewall.

When I open certain apps, (for example Quicken on my desktop), my firewall pops up and asks if I want to permit "Microsoft Edge WebView2" to access the web. I answer, no, and "disable All access" and go on with my business.

So, it is no big deal. Just an annoyance.

But, how do I permanently stop "Microsoft Edge WebView2" from running in the first place and wasting my time by trying to access the web.
Can I uninstal "Microsoft Edge WebView2" ?

Thank you.
