Partner center will stop accepting new MV2 extensions from 11th July
Hello, Edge Add-ons developers!
In May 2022, Microsoft announced the timelines for embracing Manifest Version 3 (MV3) for Microsoft Edge extensions and phasing out support for Manifest Version 2 (MV2).
As we move forward in this direction, the following change will come into effect starting 11th July 2022 –
All new extensions must use MV3 to be published to the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store.
You can continue updating your existing MV2 extensions that are already published on the Microsoft Edge Add-ons website.
This timeline is subject to change; for the latest updates, visit:
If you have any technical questions on your MV3 migration or the Microsoft Edge Add-ons ecosystem in general, you can reach out to us via our discussion forum on GitHub.
If you are facing any issues on Partner Center, or the Microsoft Edge Add-ons site; or you have any suggestions for us to improve the Microsoft Edge Add-ons ecosystem; you can submit those via our GitHub developer community.

sonakshimore Edge will be dead to me once this goes down. Sad.
- Reza_AmeriSilver ContributorThank you for the update.
- ThatWasLeftHandedCopper ContributorYou better have a built-in adblocker then... The Internet is next to impossible to browse without one.
- Rich_WhitCopper ContributorThat's a shame. Migrated to Edge from Chrome and was liking it but it seems you also want to force the removal of Ad blockers and other extensions.
So it looks like the hunt is back on for a decent browser once again- AltaBoxaBrass Contributordownload adguard for windows, mac & others, provides systemwide blocking in all apps or as necessary.
