You can certainly use other browsers. However it will make Edge the
default even if you upgraded from an earlier version of Windows where
you had something other than IE as the default. Which is kinda sneaky.
Edge is pretty good though, if unfinished, and there is some level of
consternation that it doesn't support ActiveX any more. Luckily, IE 11
is still there if you need that.
