How to prevent Microsoft Edge Chromium from installing automatically

Microsoft Edge Chromium

As you probably already know, in a very short time the current Windows 10 default browser will be replaced by a new version on all the computers with which it is compatible, through which the core of Internet browsing will be completely modified based on Chromium technology, just like popular browsers like Google Chrome do.

This in most cases is positive and is well seen by users, since it represents greater compatibility when accessing certain websites, more security and a lot of news. However, you may still need to use the Internet Explorer kernel on a modern computer for some reason, and if this is your case the best you can do is disable automatic download of the new version on your Windows computer.

This is how you can avoid updating to Microsoft Edge Chromium on your computer

As we mentioned, you may not be interested in performing this update on your Windows 10 computer and, if this is your case, you should not worry since Microsoft has prepared a small toolkit with which you can avoid getting the update related to Edge Chromium on your computer.

In this way, you must first access the download. Once this is done, when you open the file in question, you will see the Microsoft license terms and then you must select a location on your computer to extract the files necessary. Finally, you will only have open script file and the settings will be applied. Most likely no type of alert is displayed beyond the command manager for a few moments, since it is programmed to be quick and simple to install.
