Most things are probably fine, though Windows updates might do something funky or just put it back from where you threw out that trash.
But Edge is a different story. Microsoft in their infinite wisdom decided to make Edge, their web browser, essential for Windows Explorer, their file manager and desktop among other things, to function properly.
So if you get rid of Edge, things can get kinda fucky. I haven’t looked into if someone has made a workaround, I know that there are modified “debloated” Windows installs that do some heavy duty mucking about in there, but I don’t know if anyone’s figure out how to give Edge the ax without making your desktop freak out.

Edgecore sounds like a really exciting but actually bland genre of music.
Sounds like it would be all build-up and never a drop
Edge is completely safe to remove in my testing, at least if removed through the Chris Titus Utility.

Didn’t they lose a lawsuit about tying the browser into the OS?

So his Meme is correct the system will break if you force it to uninstall something?

That was definitely by design. I’m surprised they haven’t done that with more of their other bloatware tbh.
You just need to install Edge WebView separately.

Yes, though I’m pretty sure I’ve uninstalled or atleast disabled cortana with no problems
At some point this holds true for any and all environments.
