Drew1903 Although it is not officially announced, if you google "microsoft edge stable download" you get the link from search results directly from Microsoft Servers. (no spoofing, no phishing). The link is alive more than 2 weeks and is still now. They want us to use it and see the results of it. Since the stable version is same as the dev version v79.0.309.7, we can uninstall it now. And I did it for me. All the things that happened was a plan of phased release.

And Canary is 80.xxxxxxx whilst, Beta which, updates every 6 weeks is about to receive its 1st update... We are a long way time-wise from an (official) Stable or GA release. Even if a so-called one is accessible, now. That's my humble view, anyway, that there are 3 Channels, presently, for consideration and leave it at that, for the time being, at least. I feel anything else, currently, is jumping the gun, so to speak. Maybe, that perception is wrong or unnecessary, but, I prefer to stick with it.

Cheers,
Drew

Actually Beta is going to receive it's 2nd update, Not 1st.

Beta received it's 1st update back in September 25th 2019.

What's new with the latest dev build of Chromium Edge? Asking because I got the update this past Tuesday which is 79.0.309.5 and now just got notified that there is another update. Whats new with this update? I do not see a change log posted.

  Those minor updates are probably small bug fixes, all the major changes and new features are posted above 🙂

  Hi Bert,
  
  I'm fairly certain 7 is mostly backend tweaks & subtleties, tidying things up before & since Beta is about to update; as opposed to any major superficial changes or additions not listed for 5
