      It sneakily asks for Microsoft to select the most secure configuration for your system (or something similar)

      Which means setting edge and bing as default

      Today I was working on a 2019 server. I clicked on IE to download Firefox and it asked me if I wanted Edge. I didn’t want to do anything that might interfere with existing services running, so I said no. I took a phone call, and when I came back … welcome to Edge, I’m so fuckin great - let’s get started!

      I’ve been doing this since the 80s, but this was a surprisingly fresh experience for me.

        Probably you are not selecting the “recommended settings” in the welcome wizard after a feature update.

          I also have never had another welcome wizard appear after any update. Only get that after a fresh install. I just update, reboot pc, and it just boots up as normal to desktop with nothing extra.
