    Hello everyone,

    On my laptop, and have both Microsoft edge and google, and I added many extensions on chrome to block adult sites, but there's nothing on Edge that I could find. With that said, all of my relapses came as a result of me going on edge with the intent to circumvent the blocked site. Is there a way to uninstall edge, or block sites on it?

    I think that Edge is based on Chrome and it use the same extension store. Try and check it

    Microsoft Edge chromium(the new one) allows you to use chrome extensions in it, go to the chrome webstore and add one.

    I believe extension blocking is not that powerful, you might need something stronger to block P, IF you are continuously unblocking them.

    A few more powerful alternatives to extension blocking:

    1) Edit Hosts file.
    2) Use OpenDNS.
    3) Use Covenant Eyes.
    4) Edit Router settings.

    Hope this is helpful.

    I changed the host file up, and it seemed to have solved my issue.
