Chemotherapy again this malignant bullshit:

    open cmd.exe with admin privileges

    > cd %PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\Microsoft\Edge\Application\[SOME VERSION NO.]\Installer
    > setup --uninstall --force-uninstall --system-level

Prevent recurrence with some registry editing:

    > create new key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft/EdgeUpdate
    > create “DWORD (32-bit) Value” and call it “DoNotUpdateToEdgeWithChromium"
