Additionally, an Image File Execution Options mode is available to operate similarly to the Old EdgeDeflector. Additional modes are planned for future versions.\n\nNo Default App walkthrough or other steps, just set and forget.\n\n\u003e :warning: PLEASE NOTE: MSEdgeRedirect is still BETA. Changes are to be expected, and performance to be improved.\n\n## Recommended Alternatives\n\nLooking for Alternatives?

MSEdgeRedirect will still properly function.\n\n### Will MSEdgeRedirect work with Edge uninstalled?\n\nMSEdgeRedirect is compatible with [@AveYo](https://github.com/AveYo)'s [Edge Removal](https://github.com/AveYo/fox/blob/main/Edge_Removal.bat) as it retains a needed component. If Edge was removed using another method, reinstall Edge Stable, then run AveYo's tool. After AveYo's Edge Removal has been run, simply install MSEdgeRedirect and it will be detected automatically.\n\n### It isn’t working for me?\n\nRun `microsoft-edge:https://google.com` using the `Windows` + `R` keys. If that is not properly redirected, [file a bug report!](https://github.com/rcmaehl/MSEdgeRedirect/issues/new?assignees=\u0026labels=\u0026template=bug_report.md\u0026title=)\n\n### Will searches inside \\\u003capp name here\\\u003e still use Bing?\n\nMSEdgeRedirect only redirects links that attempt to open in MS Edge. It will not affect results generated within other applications.\n\n### Can you change Bing results to Google Results?\n\nYes, as of 0.5.0.0, you can select One of 8 available Search Engines, or set your own!\n  \n### How do I uninstall?\n\n#### Normal Installs\nRegular Install|Corrupted Install\n----|----\nUse Programs and Features|[Cleanup Tool](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rcmaehl/MSEdgeRedirect/main/Assets/Cleanup%20Tool.ps1)\n\n#### Package Managers\nChocolatey|Scoop|Winget\n----|----|----\n`choco uninstall msedgeredirect`|`scoop uninstall msedgeredirect`|`winget uninstall MSEdgeRedirect`\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frcmaehl%2Fmsedgeredirect","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Frcmaehl%2Fmsedgeredirect","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frcmaehl%2Fmsedgeredirect/lists"}
