    I don't know how this has happened, but now when the laptop (Windows 10) is scanned with CCleaner, the results show that it has skipped Microsoft Edge (Cache, History, Cookies, Download History).

    How can I reverse this?

    (I actually don't even use Edge, I prefer Firefox).

    Make sure everything under Edge is ticked/checked.
    If it is and it doesn't work, uninstall CCleaner and re-install it.

    Thank you.
    Everything under Edge was ticked / checked, so I uninstalled and re-installed CCleaner, but still had the same "skipped" results.

    I'm embarrassed to say that I think everything is ok?
    CCleaner seems to skip those entries because I must've cleared them via the Edge browser menu during my last usage some time ago.
    On the other hand, when I do the same with FireFox and clear items via the browser menu, CCleaner doesn't state "skipped", it appears as though it had attempted to clean them anyways.

    I appreciate your time and attached file.

    I would first reset CCleaner to its default settings > Options > Advanced > Reset
    Restart system.
    Then uninstall it using something like Absolute Uninstaller or IoBit Uninstaller, deleting all left over files
    Restart System
    Reinstall CCleaner Slim and see if it asks you for the OK/No option to delete MS Edge
