Hi,

I'm Pedro A, Independent Advisor

My suggestion is that you perform the following procedure to reinstall Edge.

It is possible that a reinstallation will solve the problem you are having.

1 - Open up File Explorer, click View and then check Hidden items box to view all hidden folders. This is required as some folders like AppData are hidden by default.

Navigate to the following location:

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Packages

Replace “UserName” with your user name.

Look for the folder named Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe and delete it. When you press or click Delete,

If appears dialog with “Do you want to permanently delete this folder? The folder contains items whose names are too long for the Recycle Bin” message, click the Yes button

If it refuses to delete some files, click Skip

Close all running apps and restart your PC.

2 - Access the link below and install the "App Installer"

https://www.microsoft.com/store/productID/9nblg...

Click Start menu and search for Windows PowerShell, open with Admin privileges.

Copy and paste the following command:

winget install Edge

Wait for the installation process to finish and perform a test
