I believe, the behaviour is different, depending on where you're from. In the EU, Microsoft is comparatively well-behaved. In the US, they're extra icky.

I'm in the US and that has never happened to me, and neither has a lot of the other wild shit people claim microsoft does every day.

What I see a lot of the time is default pdf viewers and the like being left on Edge. They also hide the default browser setting in outlook to default to Edge.
