This article describes how Windows will be updated to support the next version of Microsoft Edge.
Important
Refer to the Microsoft Edge product team blog post about Microsoft Edge Legacy end of service.
Note
This article applies to the Microsoft Edge Stable channel.
Microsoft Edge and the Windows release cycle
The next version of Microsoft Edge features more frequent and more flexible updating capabilities. Because browser releases aren't bound to the Windows major releases, changes will be made to the operating system to ensure that the next version of Microsoft Edge fits seamlessly into Windows. As a result, feature updates will be released on a 6-week cycle (approximately). Security and compatibility updates will be shipped as needed.
Updates and the user experience
Updates won’t change the user experience until the Stable channel of the next version of Microsoft Edge is installed. Installing Microsoft Edge Beta, Dev, or Canary won’t trigger any changes in Windows. These browser releases will be installed alongside existing browsers.
