FIXED: How to Stop Internet Explorer from Redirecting to Edge 

Same here. It won't allow it to be disabled.

@@lieutenant146 You need to disable it manually in regedit

Thanks a lot bro. It's working for me.

This is the only thing that worked for me. You're a genius. Saving this one. Knowing Microsoft, they will probably patch this hole soon but for now, October 3, 2032, it works! No matter what happens in the future, I want the world to know you caught a major W with this one.

Thanks for the tip this worked.

add-on is disabled, but still ie redirects to edge

without any reason few system its not working, portal/apps not loading.

His point was, if IE is hijacked by Edge, you don't get a chance to enter Internet Options from IE. You can't enter IE Options this way until you've fixed the actual issue, so you got to find another way. Going back to the old style Control Panel was one way to do it. But Microsoft removed this option a few months back already, because they know you don't really want to use IE, and you really want to use Edge instead.
