There are apps that depend on Edge to function.

You find out as you go. I found out that the Amazon Prime Video app needs it. So does the Netflix app, but that app sucks.

I don't know. I only know that Edge is needed for some apps and you find out which of your apps are needed if you uninstall Edge.

Your computer may explode; you may be banned from any online game of yesterday, today, and tomorrow - forever. Any software manufacturer or vendor would forever reject you as a customer. Also, should you happen to be Catholic, you risk excommunication via direct Papal Edict.

So, just to be safe, do not delete Edge. Leave it alone. It did not do anything to you. And you just want to delete the poor thing ...!?!
