siliconman01 Posted February 14, 2021 Author Share Posted February 14, 2021 Insider Build 21313 removed the legacy Edge; however, CCleaner still shows it as installed (on the Windows tab of CC). Hopefully, the CCleaner developers will modify the Edge cleaning modules to no longer show the legacy Edge on systems where it has been removed.

Moderators nukecad Posted February 14, 2021 Moderators Share Posted February 14, 2021 I believe that both Edge versions are shown by default, whether you have them or not. Presumably once legacy Edge is removed by MS in April's Patch Tuesday update it can also be removed from CCleaner. It may hang about for a while though, not everybody does updates when they should, and legacy Edge will still be available for some businesses and endpoints. I suppose the next question has to be when will MS get around to scrapping/removing IE? *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'?
