It just reinstalled Edge, put a shortcut for it on your desktop and start menu, made it your default browser and migrated all your cookies and login info to Edge (for ad and tracking purposes) before uninstalling said browsers.

No big deal, bro

Well if course I'm over exaggerating, but Windows does love to reinstall Edge no matter how many times I remove it

It only reinstalls when there is a new version.
