uninstalled it and downloaded fresh Canary web installer, at the end of the install it shows me this error:

Same here @HotCakeX . Tried half a dozen times. Goes to 50% and gives error. I am on windows build 18363.356.

Yeah, that error code is the same code as the first one listed of the 2 error codes we are getting..

Trying to download and install Edge canary in Windows Sandbox also fails with the same error.
now i'm sure no uninstall leftovers is preventing reinstallation.
I'd suggest not uninstalling your Edge cause you wouldn't be able to install it again ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yep same here. I even uninstalled (saved my UserData folder so wouldn't lose anything) and reinstalled Edge Canary before coming on this forum, and got the same error message screen. I went into Windows Updater and that worked fine so I know it's not our end. Probably something to do with Microsoft's side of things with their downloader or updater. 

Must be on the backend. I just smilied them a screenshot @HotCakeX .

@HotCakeX  Yup, got the same error trying to update. Gave it a couple more tries and now it says I'm on the lastest - Version 78.0.274.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit). So I have to assume the issue is on the Microsoft side of things and they've pulled/stopped the lastest version.

yep, same here, now says on the latest version...

Because they removed the problematic update, i could reinstall Edge canary again from Internet.

Same here. I was able to re-install now.

Wonder if they got this problem fixed since there was no post on what happened....

They fixed it by removing the update from the server. have to wait for the next one.
