MS Edge stopped launching May 15, 2026
Beginning today - MS Edge stopped launching. It was working yesterday and I hadn't installed anything or restarted. Rebooting didn't resolve the issue. Running the Modify / Repair from the Installed Apps area ran through the reinstall but it still doesn't launch.
Perhaps someone has already seen this issue?

Hello,
Try re-registering Microsoft Edge. Perform these steps:
- Search for Windows PowerShell using Windows Search.
- From results, right click on Windows PowerShell and select Run as administrator.
- Then type following command and press Enter key:
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml” -Verbose}
Let the command complete.
- Close Windows PowerShell and check Edge, it should work fine now.
