## What it is
A Windows utility that uninstalls Microsoft Edge (and optionally WebView2) via prebuilt executables or batch scripts. It offers variants for removing Edge only, WebView only, or both, including the Appx version.

## Use cases
- remove microsoft edge from windows
- uninstall edge browser with a script
- delete edge webview2 runtime
- remove appx version of edge
- silently remove edge via task scheduler
- debloat a fresh windows install

## When to choose
- you want a ready-made exe or batch script to remove Edge on Windows
- you need a no-terminal variant for scheduled or silent removal
- you want to remove Edge and/or WebView2 selectively

## When to avoid
- you rely on apps that require WebView2 (e.g., Roblox, Xbox App, PowerToys, Quicken)
- your Windows updates are not current, as removal can cause an update failure loop
- you need to remove browsers on non-Windows platforms
