Microsoft Edge is now fully integrated into Windows 11. What started as an alternative to Chromium web browsers has now gained over 8.1% of global users. Microsoft wanted to win over more users by making it the default browser in Windows 11, but that hasn’t gone down well with most users.

First of all, you can’t uninstall Microsoft Edge from your system the traditional way, which seems to annoy most users. Moreover, you have to change the permissions for certain links individually in order to change your default browser in Windows 11. This can all seem quite daunting at first, but here’s how to completely uninstall Edge and then replace it with Google Chrome in Windows 11.

Let's change your default browser to Chrome.

Before you begin, make sure you have the latest version of Google Chrome installed on your system. Once you are ready, follow the guide below to get you started.
