MSEdge complete uninstall

[bluenite]

Is there any way to completely remove this browser from Win10? With some custom uninstaller from MS or something like that? In Settings the uninstall option is greyed out, see sshot1. It won't even reinstall, see second screen:

Thx for any advice

No From Settings > Apps > 'Apps and features' locate Microsoft Edge and select it. 'Advanced Options' will appear below. From there you should see a reset button
