    Yeah, this is a ragebait headline (and I’ll admit that it caught me). This is actually in line with what you see on Android and most Linux distros. It’s also likely that Microsoft doesn’t want you to easily change from Edge, but still. This is better than allowing an application to silently change which applications open things on your computer.

      They could simply present a popup with “Change Default web browser to Chrome? You can change this later in settings.”

      While there at it they also should remove the “recommended” label and popups, the onedrive ads and Teams integration.
