A small application to redirect calls for the Edge URI protocol (e.g. from Cortana/Search or help buttons) to the default browser instead of Microsoft Edge.
This is functionally identical to da2x's EdgeDeflector, except much smaller and faster (built to a native assembly rather than using .NET Framework).
- Run the latest installer available from releases.
- After running, you will be prompted to associate EdgeDeflectorSlim with the
microsoft-edge
URI protocol. This can be set in Windows settings:Apps > Default apps > Choose default apps by protocol
.
