WSUS Edge Update detection not working on legacy Windows versions
mdaehlmann Thank you! This is helpful! I've let the team know you are also experiencing the same issue.

Kelly_Y just FYI, the latest batch of updates that hit WSUS last night, still do not detect Edge updates on Windows 8.1 clients.
- mdaehlmannOct 24, 2020Copper ContributorThanks Kelly! I can confirm that the latest version 86.0.622.51 is now properly detected by Windows 8.1 endpoints again!

Kelly_Y I did a resync and the latest Stable was detected and installed on Windows 8.1, thanks for that!
I still do not see Beta/Dev channels detect updates. Maybe I just need to give them more time?
EDIT: Oops, apparently I should have checked the update history, Beta/Dev actually already downloaded and updated in the background. So it appears to be working correctly now. Thanks guys!

Hi - Just to follow up, for anyone that was experiencing the issue a resync should pull down the updated detectoid and mitigate the issue. If anyone is still reproducing the issue, please let us know!
Thanks!

broland mdaehlmann Pepijn_Vermeersch jdseymour1978 - Hi Everyone! Great news, our team was able to deploy a fix. Edit:
You should now be able to receive the MS Edge updates on downlevel Windows.I'm double checking when you should be able to see the change.Appreciate all the feedback as it really helped with our investigation! If you continue to reproduce the issue, please let us know. Thanks!

Still not working on Windows 8.1 either. Doesn't seem like it should be this difficult considering it did work at one time.

Thank you. I'm pleased to say that the latest version of Edge - 86.0.622.48 - is now being detected as 'Needed' on Windows 10 endpoints on our network, where it is installed, by WSUS.
WSUS shows all versions of Edge after 85.0.564.63 as 'Not applicable' to Windows 7 endpoints, even though it (or superseding versions) are approved for installation, and it is installed on several Windows 7 endpoints on our network (we are still at the test and evaluation stage of our implementation of Edge).

I can confirm that the last WSUS delivered update for Microsoft Edge that detected and installed on our legacy Windows 7 endpoints (with ESU) was 85.0.564.63.
The latest update - 86.0.622.48 - which arrived overnight yesterday/today (20/21st Oct 2020) is not scanning for any endpoint, including Windows 10, despite being approved.

broland and Pepijn_Vermeersch - Thank you for sending your updates! I've passed them on to our team who continues the investigation.
