• Microsoft is trying to game Google Search with a page heavily optimized for the keyword “uninstall Microsoft Edge.”
• However, the page doesn’t actually tell you how to remove the browser. Instead, it tries to convince you not to.
• Two can play that game: this page is also optimized for that keyword, but we actually have instructions on what to do.

Microsoft really, really wants you to use its Edge browser. This is clear to anyone who uses Windows and tries to install Chrome: you’ll see numerous alerts telling you not to do that. Just recently, Microsoft put a new alert in Edge that appears if you use Bing to search for “Chrome Web Store,” so this is still an active effort.

However, what Microsoft has done now is truly sneaky. The company has developed a webpage that is heavily optimized for the term “uninstall Microsoft Edge” in Google Search (via Windows Latest). When you visit the page, though, there is no method given for uninstalling the browser. Instead, it’s filled with information on why Edge is better than Chrome. Psych!
