MS Edge stopped launching May 15, 2026

Hello,

Try re-registering Microsoft Edge. Perform these steps:

1. Search for Windows PowerShell using Windows Search.

2. From results, right click on Windows PowerShell and select Run as administrator.

3. 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.

4. Close Windows PowerShell and check Edge, it should work fine now.
