Hi,
AFAIK Edge doesn't use Windows update to receive updates,
by the way where is that file available for download?
82.0.451.0 is currently the latest Edge canary and Microsoft doesn't offer offline package for Edge canary Windows last time I checked.

Hi
When you install Edge Canary, this .exe is present in AppData\Local\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\Download\{65C35B14-6C1D-4122-AC46-7148CC9D6497}\82.0.451.0 folder
But no update program is "installed" and therefore the update does not work
and I wonder how to get the updates
This version of "Canary" interests me strongly, it is "stamped as a stable (for the icons)

Weird,
so you don't have this file?%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe

Yes I have this (for a standard Canary installation, via the MicrosoftEdgeSetupCanary file)
And this
For news install of Canary
But if I install by .exe, there is no EdgeUpdate directory

that error message has problem, half of it in English and the other half in French.
I think the French part says the updater is already running and check back later?
