Thanks :thumbsup: . I thought it was another Putin's invasion (of course, besides the Prigozhin).

Which ones don't work?

...Most of the google store extensions are on the Edge extension pages - or equivalent...

I doubt it... As you can see, there are not plenty of GOOD extensions on the Edge extension page (I know, except the AdGuard in the list) :woozy: :

You run it like I do. Won't see it as you don't use Chrome web store extensions. I don't see the point of using it as there's a huge list of Edge extensions now.

I have to keep both turned on! Sometimes, I use "Load Unpacked" and always use "Update" to update them:

Doesn't matter..., it just keeps reappearing! :nope:

You can turn off everything and remove it..., it just keeps coming back, like a stubborn virus!!! 🤷‍♂️

Not at the moment (after 24 hrs):

And..., if I use Revo to uninstall it, I get this broken link in the Start Menu that does nothing...

This one removes it completely (even from Start menu). Install Edge again and uninstall it in this way:

Doesn't matter anyway, I don't use Edge, I just keep it accessible only to occasionally confirm it's still a bloated, socialite browser!!! :zany:

I’ve never used Edge. I’m too scared of being microchipped.

The only browser I have installed is Edge. I switched from FF since Edge Chromium was released.

If Microsoft continues these intrusions, I'll divorce Edge and bring back my lovely double F (Firefox).

FF has been changed a lot?
I sometimes (rarely) need to use Tor Portable (because of time to time disgusting censorship here and only for bypass YouTube censorship), I don't see any big difference.

@TraderGary
Stable Channel :think: (I'm on Stable, latest)

@Edwin
AFAIK, almost all PRO editors (some say Advanced Editor :woozy:) have this option. Even Telegram has a setting that you can choose between sending a message or adding a line by pressing it (Ctrl+Enter). I love it.

Nothing important. I meant I didn't see any big changes in FF yet (to be prepared for).
Since I use (sometimes) the Tor Browser (to bypass YouTube censorship) and Tor is based on FF (is exactly Firefox!).

I thought you meant I should install FF to be prepared for uninstalling the Edge!
