Uninstalled Edge, now I can't reinstall

I had some issues with setting up a kiosk with Edge - so I tried to uninstall like this:
https://www.wintips.org/uninstall-reinstall-microsoft-edge/#method-1

Now I can't reinstall. When I try, a gray window pops up for a second, and goes away. I get this eventlog:

Are there any workaround to install Edge again?

Regards, Lars.

Hi @Lars-3668 ,

According to the article you provided, I used the first method and successfully uninstalled MS Edge in Windows 10. If you need to reinstall it, it is very simple. Please follow these steps below:

Step1: Navigate to the official page: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge
Step2: Scroll the page to Browse across devices, you will see four products, product Windows should be on the far left. Like this:

reinstall MS Edge

Step3: Click the orange part "Get Microsoft Edge" in the image
Step4: According to the prompt, you can now reinstall MS Edge again!

Best regards,
Xudong Peng
