An Microsoft Edge error rears its ugly head once more!

Open unicorn76 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I am now getting this message after running BleachBit (the latest version) successfully for a while: - Microsoft Edge cannot be cleaned because it is currently running. Close it, and try again. I have tried going back and closing Edge, and it closes. However when I go to 'clean' again it repeats that there is an error with Edge. I have also closed Edge immediately upon starting up my laptop to no avail. Also tried restarting, closing Edge, and trying to 'clean' with the same error message.

Sorry Andrew, great software though

Does this help? It shows a setting in Edge

Hi Andrew and az0, the suggestion helped immensely. Cleaned without error! I don't usually use Edge either, I use Brave, however for only one website I have to use Edge. Otherwise, I would boot Edge off of my laptop if possible. Thanks again guys
