This was true until Edge transitioned to Chromium. Now the natively installed browser in Windows is Chromium based.

careful, you used the word native.

Firefox users apparently get triggered by it.

Because what you claim is wrong.

Microsoft programs that need a web rendering engine use MSHTML, not Chromium. MSHTML is baked into the operating system.

You can completely delete Edge from your computer and Windows will keep working fine.
