I’m going by the information ive got on hand from what I know you’ve installed a suspicious file on github which uninstalls edge which means it almost certainly has administrator permissions. Ontop of this anyone can summit code to github projects and while most of those maclious actors get caught a few can slip on in and reek chaos I know for an instant that edge doesn’t behave this way as I use it almost daily on my personal computer

Even if I am wrong and this isn’t malware. Isn’t it better to be safe than sorry op to take the proper precautions that are necessary to avoid all the unnecessary stress and hardship
