Winget installs are broken

[aloner-pro]

I searched tokyo from windows search with Win+S but it went to edge whereas my default is Brave. I also tried the method given by Win+R , it too lead to Edge.

Using Windows 10.

This doesn't happen with NoMoreEdge, it redirects search results directly to brave.

Can you verify you did not have both installed at the same time?

At first I only had MsEdgeRedirect only on my system. Downloaded it through winglet. After it didn't work I installed NoMoreEdge by the installer.

Do you mean winget? If so, can you run winget as administrator and retry the install. I have the installer set to inherit Winget's permissions and as such it would only install in service mode from package managers.

Well I uninstalled both MSEdgeRedirect and NoMoreEdge then reinstalled MSEdgeRedirect from winget with admin priviledges and now it is working.

I'll get non-admin winget installs fixed for 0.8.0.0

@androidacy-user @aloner-pro Are you all on Win11 or Win10. Wasn't able to reproduce.

Alright, my Win11 laptop is charging, but I'll test on there shortly

Any progress? Build from may 28 still has the issue for me, edge_removal from @AveYo works fine but doesn't offer the fine grained controls

As told by me the admin install worked for me on my windows 10 laptop. I am using it currently.

Could be an 11 only update

Pretty sure this is an issue with $aConfig[$vMode]. I have no idea what previous me was doing with this 😂

This is why 1.0.0.0 is getting a full code rewrite

Nods along knowingly like we know what that even means, and knowing that 1.0 will come soon(tm)

Can you all check %localappdata%\MSEdgeRedirect\PEBIAT.log for any log entries?

[aloner-pro]

Can you all check %localappdata%\MSEdgeRedirect\PEBIAT.log for any log entries?

It's empty. and the correct filepath would be %localappdata%\MSEdgeRedirect\logs\PEBIAT.log

I will also check. @rcmaehl I'm also on Windows 11, version 22H2 - build 22621.1848 (latest stable build)

EDIT: I just installed it trough the release page here on GitHub. Maybe I need to make a seperate issue?

Also, I don't have those log files. See below:

Hi all,

Has anyone tested this with 0.7.4.0?

Hi all,

Honestly, I've been using aeyo's edge remover for a while now. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
