<p align="center"><b>A PowerShell script that correctly uninstalls or reinstalls Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 & 11.</b></p>

---

### Features

- Remove Edge with its own uninstaller, meaning there aren't leftovers, alongside no breakage as nothing is hardcoded
- Multiple fallback methods for uninstallation
- Can remove Edge installed with a `.msi`
- Ability to reinstall Edge and WebView2
- Implementable in scripts with parameters

### Usage

You can use the command below in PowerShell to launch the script:

```powershell
iex(irm https://gitee.com/ggbhack/edge-remove/raw/main/get.ps1)
```

Or download the repository and run locally (run as Administrator):

```powershell
powershell -NoP -EP Unrestricted -File "C:\Users\Huan Hu\Desktop\ggb\EdgeRemover-main\RemoveEdge.ps1"
```

#### Implementation in Scripts

Download the script and run `Get-Help .\RemoveEdge.ps1` to see its options. You can either use the downloaded file directly with these arguments or put them into the snippet below:

```powershell
iex "&{$(irm https://gitee.com/ggbhack/edge-remove/raw/main/get.ps1)} [ARGUMENTS HERE]"
```

  <summary>Example</summary>

  This would uninstall Edge, remove Edge's user-data, and install Edge WebView:
  ```powershell
  iex "&{$(irm https://gitee.com/ggbhack/edge-remove/raw/main/get.ps1)} -UninstallEdge -RemoveEdgeData -InstallWebView"
  ```
</details>

### Clearing Edge Blocks
You can use the command below in PowerShell to clear all EdgeUpdate policies, including those that block the reinstallation and update of Edge or WebView.

```powershell
iex "&{$(irm https://gitee.com/ggbhack/edge-remove/raw/main/get.ps1)} -ClearUpdateBlocks"
```

### Troubleshooting

If Edge won't uninstall, try:

1. Repairing Edge
2. Making sure that Windows is up to date
3. Making sure that Edge is up to date

If it still doesn't work, [make an issue](https://gitee.com/ggbhack/edge-remove/issues).
