Martin, does the “Startup Boost feature” exists to anything other than New Edge? – “Microsoft Edge”-Deinstallation optimiert: Im initialen 20H2-Originalzustand konnte bisher teilweise kein DeinstallationsschlÃ¼ssel ermittelt werden. – Kleinere Anpassungen im Hinblick auf den in KÃ¼rze erscheinenden Windows 10 Release 21H1 – HinzufÃ¼gen einer Option zur Blockierung der automatischen “Microsoft Edge”-Installation

Probably because “W10Privacy” running at the system level has removed Edge and also blocked its reinstallation. I therefore used a firewall (simplewall) to block communication functions such as resurrected IE execution and telemetry. There is no Edge executable in the system. I manually updated to “20H2” from “1909”, which has reached its support expiration date, but the New “Edge” has been removed.Īfter the update was completed, the New “Edge” was automatically executed, but after rebooting the PC, “both the old and new Edge” disappeared without a trace. Interested in this article, I tried to inspect the settings of “Edge” and others, but “Edge” itself did not exist. Yes, now Edge will load faster, simply because it will now only partially close when you think you are terminating its processes the consequence of this is now your entire system will have less RAM and will boot slower. There are effective ways to improve application load speed, and “startup boosters” are nothing more than snake oil that tricks the user into thinking something something is performing better, when in fact, it really makes everything worse. Personally, I don’t use any “startup boosters”, and when I see them, I immediately lose much respect for the application developers. The big downside is that Edge will now be using precious RAM even when it’s not running. So your Windows system will now boot even slower (and MS isn’t exactly a star with their slow Windows 10 boot times, as compared to a more efficient OS like Linux).īut that’s not the biggest downside of this nonsense. Startup boosters are for programmers who don’t know how to program efficiently or effectively.Īll they are doing is time shifting the slow loading of Edge (which is mostly just the sluggish Chrome reboxed) to boot time instead of when you actually run the app.
