Looks like during a Windows update they included a copy of the"Skype" program, now it pops up all the time, mainly after I reboot or restart my computer. Now what is funny I can't find it in the program files. It is getting annoying, never wanted or used it, now trying to figure out how to get rid of it. Anyone else having this or know how to at least turn it off. Please don't tell me it is embedded in the "Edge" program, (BTW I don't use Edge either).

Same here, Firefox or Waterfox (less junky), you can't really disable Edge but slow it down in the background.
