Edge patch for server OS
- Oct 19, 2020
Well use the offline installer to upgrade the Edge on your server.
in the article I linked above,
Windows updates for Microsoft Edge | Microsoft Docs
it doesn't say that Windows server receives new Edge through Windows update. Windows servers don't even have the legacy Edge to begin with.
Windows 10 clients can obviously be controlled through various methods (intune, Microsoft 365 device management, group policy, SCCM etc)
if you have many servers, you can use the methods above to deploy the updates.
Hi HotCakeX
Thanks for the reply! Im aware of the download link, thats not the issue here.
The issue is patching Edge on all the servers that the software deployed to.
As I mentioned earlier the servers don't have a direct internet connection and can't use the auto update feature.
What I'm saying is that I'm not being alerted any more through "Windows Update" for servers running an older version of Edge since the most recent version available as a patch is version 85.0.564.63.
Something in regards to patching/updating Edge must have change after this version.
The thing is that workstations (eg. Win10) still have patches available in Windows Update (server OSs do not) but those patches are not applicable on server OSs. Eg. http://download.windowsupdate.com/d/msdownload/update/software/updt/2020/10/microsoftedgeenterprisex64_b59d7efea5bc75cb7b53919bdd7e1e0b82ab3234.cab
