A Windows 10 update forces a full screen @MicrosoftEdge window, which cannot be closed from the taskbar, or CTRL W, or even ALT F4. You must press "get started," then the X, and even then it pops up a welcome screen. And pins itself to the taskbar.

I am very late to this, but remember how @iilluminaughtii accused @LegalEagle of plagiarizing this highlighter effect? I'm the editor who implemented it. And I didn't get it from her... I got it from Coffeezilla's editor @HarryRBagg , who got it from Envato Elements. (1 of 12?)
