Do you want me to use Edge, Microsoft?
If you're going to ask for something be direct, don't beat around the bush.
So I'm confused, Microsoft. Do you want me to use Edge? After installing updates Edge wants to 'Get started', on a nice modal with no cancel button or even any little x to close it. Must be some mistake right, not quite ready for prime time if they forgot the 'Don't get started' button. Maybe I'll try it when the kinks are worked out.
Ah, right clicking the icon and choosing close would work, right? Nope. Feels more and more like malware.
You can kill it from task manager so at least someone was paying some attention to usability.
Don't I remember some settlement with the DOJ after an antitrust judgement for forcing browsers on someone? That was a while back, must be remembering a different company.

It is rather annoying when you spend more time trying to cancel an installation than you probably would just installing then uninstalling.
