Soham1010   well, this is the first time I've encountered it in half a year of using Edge for Mac.  and it happened, immediately after updating Safari to 14.0, on my macOS Catalina 10.15.6.  so, something seems to have been changed at a deeper level common to both apps and how it accesses the 'Net.  just my take on it.

    davidlcoffin6719 I have the same issue in Catalina 10.15.6 immediately after installing Safari 14 last night and setting it as the default browser. I had been using Edge since beta in December and set it as default since the public release with no issues, until this Error Code 6. Also all extensions are crashing,

      and that is what us early adopters are here for, to root out bugs, and make sure they get ATTENTION from MICROSOFT. never mind that to a large extent, they're mortal enemies of Apple.. heh.

        xyzlast what do you mean by reboot? There is no way to access the settings page, and edge://restart doesn't solve the problem. There is no reboot option on mac as far as I know. Also, do you have the Safari 14 update? If you don't, we could be talking about different issues here
