How to stop Edge from auto-launch native desktop apps from links (particularly Teams)

How do I 'undo' the setting of having Microsoft Edge automatically launching native desktop apps, when I click on a link related to that app (i.e. Microsoft Teams), if I want to remain in the browser and use the web based version instead?

    OK, figured it out.
    Deleted all cookies in edge related to teams.microsoft.com. restarted edge; opened office.com, selected teams; it complained then offered for me to try again or sign out. I chose to sign out and in again, and then I took try again, but it might have just worked if I had taken try again the first time. Now I have browser teams.
