Recently I decided to make the decision to change my browser to Firefox after my 16 year-old-son said it was “based”. When navigating to the download page from Microsoft Edge, it claimed that Edge was better than Firefox because it had 60% of the features and none of the privacy. Despite the tempting claims, I proceeded anyway and set Firefox as my default browser. After a couple of days, I went to turn on my computer, and it said it was “installing updates”; when it booted on, Firefox was gone from my computer, and Edge was set as the default browser! I brushed this off as a bug, but the same thing happened four days later! What did I do wrong?
I agree with the other comments that you are likely not doing anything wrong. My only addition is that I have the same setup but haven’t had my default changed back to edge.
Are you using a local account or a Microsoft online account to sign in?
I use a Microsoft account to sign in, apparently it’s to help increase privacy by sending my data to Microsoft. They can store it in their vaults and then nobody can get access to my precious data! Right?
That’s correct. When they complete a profile on you, Microsoft can make it IMPOSSIBLE for hackers to steal you and your children’s sensitive information🔒🤞🏻
