Prevent context menu in Edge when text is selected

In its recent version, Edge shows a context menu when selecting text. Is there any way to prevent this behaviour with JavaScript? I tried window.oncontextmenu = e => {e.preventDefault();}; but this wasn't successful.enter image description here

If you don't need to use this feature in Edge, you can disable this menu via specific setting in Edge.

Just follow these steps:

  1. Naviagte to edge://settings/appearance in Edge.
  2. Scroll down the page to the Context menus section.
  3. Disable the option Show mini menu when selecting text.

Something like this:

In addition, you can also disable this feature on specific sites, depending on your needs.
