Haven't installed or actually used "chrome" in years. Edge is based on chrome anyway.

It's basically Microsofts fork of chrome with all their services integrated.
It's all Firefox for me, but I have alot of clients complain to me when edge takes over chroms as default after an update.
I just apply the registry hack using edgeblocker and problem is gone for good.
