install edge chromium and replace classic edge

Brass Contributor

Hello I've seen before when installing the Edge Chromium, the classic Edge version was replaced

Today I installed Windows 19H2 and installed the Edge Chromium-dev version, but the classic Edge is still accessible

How do I replace edge with Classic Edge?

Hi,
according to this official document:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/DeployEdge/microsoft-edge-sysupdate-windows-updates
only Stable version of the Edge insider will do that, other channels (Beta/Dev/Canary) don't have that behavior.

currently, the only versions of Edge insider available are in here:
https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/download/

stable version will be officially released in January 15th 2020

Do you know, if Microsoft is pushing the Edge Chromium as replace for the old Edge version - meaning will it replace via monthly updates the old Edge version on all Win10 PCs?

Thanks and regards
