Clean install of Edge

Currently I'm using the Canary build and I'm wondering if and how I can do a clean install. Browser might've been infected. I don't know but I'd like to make sure.

    Here's how you can do a clean install of Microsoft Edge:

    Firstly, uninstall Microsoft Edge by the way you do it for applications in your OS.

    When this dialog box appears, check-mark the "Also clear your browsing data?" option and then uninstall Microsoft Edge.

     

    • Then, if you want to install the stable version of Microsoft Edge, you can download it from the link http://microsoft.com/edge/ 
    • If you want to install the Insider Channels of Microsoft Edge, you can download it from the link https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/download/ 
    • If you want to download the MSI installer/business Microsoft Edge, you can download it from the link https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/business/download
