That's what I do too. But when I delete cookies (with CCleaner), which
I do regularly, there are frequently some for Edge, even though I don't
use it explicitly. Is there an explanation for that phenomenon?


Whole bunch of "possible" explanations...
a. How do you know the cookies are for edge?


--CCleaner breaks it down by browser

b. Which edge?
c. How do you know Edge (whichever one) isn't started in the background?
etc.


--It may be. But I believe I have removed it, or tried to remove it,
only to have it reappear. It's been a few months since I've done that.
But in the past, I have been able to close the "intro" screen through
the task manager. But not the last time. Let's not forget who "owns"
the computer. There does not appear to be respect for that. From what I
can tell, smart-phones are worse with regard to that issue. I've already
switched from win7 to win10 even though I had a paid-for professional
version of the OS. IMO, MS shouldn't "get in the way". You can say,
"Apple is worse", and I'll agree with that.
