Hi Deleted, HotCakeX, are all extensions failing to update properly, or only extensions that you have installed from a specific store?  What extensions are you seeing the updates fail for?  The answers to these questions will help us narrow down the issues.  Thanks - Elliot

Very strange. The two I noticed that were not updating were uBlock Origin and Malwarebytes Browser Guard. Both were installed from the Chrome Store. Other extensions from the Chrome Store were up to date (either because they did update correctly or because they hadn't had any updates since I installed them).

When I posted the problem I was using Edge Canary (not sure which version). I have since removed Canary and am using the Beta version 78.0276.14. In the Beta version both of these extensions did update to the latest version. So the problem may have been only on Canary. I'm not sure.
