# Edge Update - Remaining subprocess.run(['reg', 'delete', r'HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate', '/f'], startupinfo=hide_console(), stdout=subprocess.DEVNULL, stderr=subprocess.DEVNULL) This should not do if keep webview,otherwise many application uses webview will not be able to detect installed webview and ask you to install it.

FYI. The reg key records the installation path of the system wide webview.

You are correct. Broke the Xbox app, when testing.

Specifically HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\Clients\{56EB18F8-B008-4CBD-B6D2-8C97FE7E9062}\ pv

This will be omitted from the next update.

Thanks!

Updated.

Removal tool has been converted to a batch script, due to how long it takes to report false positives to AV software, every time there is an update.

*.exe version has also been fixed

Try implementing a c# one and test it with AV? I was using it in OOBE which does not have network yet,though I can place the setup.exe along with the bat.
