Why so many MS Edge entries in Open with menu on macOS
Hi everyone.
I would like to know why we get so many entries in the Open With menu on macOS?
I included a screenshot of my right click - Open With menu. It looks like every new version creates an entry in that menu. This, I think, shouldn't be like that.
I tried to removed the entries with lregister in command line, but it came back after rebooting.
Any suggestion?

- danvinCopper ContributorI solved it, I removed Edge from my Mac. I’m now using only Safari and Brave. By the way, it is surprising how many files and locations Edge use to work. I found a detailed procedure to remove it entirely. Not an easy task.

I have the same issue. Alas, no solution. I need Edge for work purposes, so I cannot uninstall it (though I would like to)I hope one of the MS techies is paying attention.

I have the same problem, from where did all those IP address come? It seems it reaches out all computers in my subnet that have Edge installed.
