Yeah, some people don't like random apps installing on thier computer and think it is malware that is edge is just isntalling it by default.
That woudl be confusing 😘
just read the conversation again please. nothing is confusing, everything already explained.
this specific comment:
I think it would be good if windows or edge can ask for a prompt to you if you want to install the apps since defender may think that ran dom apps is installing would be???
you are already asked, with a prompt, to install a website as an app.
as a matter of fact, websites don't automatically get installed as app, the installation needs to be initiated by the user only.if you are talking about syncing, they can be silently installed, which is only adding shortcuts to certain places and other minor modifications.

Windows defender won't alert for legitimate and safe apps.
