KB4576754 Edge installation without uninstallation

Microsoft was released KB4576754, a new update that forces the program to install s Edge in Windows 10 version 2004 but also in all older versions.

After installing the above update, Microsoft Edge appears installed and pinned to the taskbar while the uninstall button is gray in the list of installed applications.

Microsoft had used the same method to install Edge on Windows 10 version 1803 users. Now, the released will do the same on Windows 10, versions 1809, 1903, 1909 and 2004.

The update KB456754 circulates as quality information, so will be installed automatically. After that, the classic Edge will disappear and you will no longer be able to uninstall the Chromium-based browser version.

Not at least in the orthodox way.
