Chromium-based Edge has received a very positive reception, something quite unusual for a Microsoft browser, and I know that many Insiders have already switched over to make it their main browser, including myself. If you haven’t had a chance to look at the new browser, I’d suggest giving the beta or dev channel a go right now.

Canary builds are updated almost daily, Dev builds weekly, and the Beta channel every six weeks.įor more information about enterprise features in the new Edge browser, check out Internet Explorer Mode and Other Enterprise Features Now Available for Testing in Microsoft Edge Insider Preview on Petri. The new Edge has been in public preview since early 2019 and there are three development branches Microsoft Edge Insiders can sign up to: Canary, Dev, and Beta. In case you missed it, Microsoft has been testing a new version of Edge that it built from the ground up and it is based on the open source Chromium browser, the same code that Google uses for its popular Chrome browser. But it’s less clear how and when Microsoft will deliver the new browser as part of Windows 10. It’s no secret that Microsoft’s new Chromium-based Edge browser will be made generally available on January 15 th, 2020.
