Welcome to the Microsoft Edge Insiders community
Could I ask that is it release new Edge in MS Store in your timeline? Now MS Store have many software and enough to daily work, and I don't want install a program with UAC. If the answer is not, I think new Edge should have a portable version just like VSCode, I found many people don't install VSCode but take the portable version like me. Elliot Kirk

Yes. But if new Edge update with Windows update, will it updte quickly as chormium but not like old Edge? And can we use it in 19H1 without download a installer. Thank you.
Hi Elliot, I had mentioned this at a Windows Insider event about the Microsoft Edge browser being able to receive updates through the Microsoft Store. A problem with Edge not being in the store is that in order to update the broser you would have to update your whole operating system, so by putting the browser in the store it can receive updates through the store, unless you could deliver updates separately through the Windows Updates like Windows Security patches come through.

- Thank you for the feedback, SalmanMKC. You should see the preview versions of Edge update indepedantly from the operating system. The canary channel should update almost everyday, and the Dev channel about once a week.
Elliot- But, doesnt that require a launch to update it, with the store it wont need you to launch it?
