I never added a master password and forsome stinking reason it thinks I did. Now I can't use EDGE at all. I've tried uninstalling EDGE but that doesn't work.

That's no way to be the feature that everyone was waiting for. I am still able to export the passwords and use them on another browser. Edge as Chrome is still not able to encrypt the password correctly.
