Playing devils advocate here. If there was a bug when chrome/Firefox/whatever tried to set the default browser, wouldn't the most logical action to reset the default back to edge, instead of leaving it in a weird bugged out state?
The "app" is called Windows. :)
In EU you can uninstall Edge completely.
"An app caused a problem". Let me guess, that app was called "Edge", and it was just pissed to be ignored.
miss those vague error messages, not.
I switched to Linux and now, I'm in the mildlysoothing category

I got an email advertising Windows 11 features. It was a mandatory service email they would not let me unsubscribe from.
What is wrong with these people?
Mark spam?
Last time Microsoft tried something like this, they got the shit slapped out of them by federal antitrust regulators:

@herseycokguzelolacak Just like how clicking any web links (be it from the shitty widgets menu or from windows search) that open the browser, open as edge:// links which force opening on Microsoft Edge even if it's not your default browser. This sucks but at least I can uninstall Edge easily from the settings (maybe because I am in the EU)
Seriously considering switching to Linux lately!
