Questions about Edge Update Jobs

Copper Contributor

I'm seeing these Edge update scheduled tasks:

MicrosoftEdgeUpdateTaskMachineCore

MicrosoftEdgeUpdateTaskMachineUA

and tasks with SID like:

MicrosoftEdgeUpdateTaskUserS-1-5-21-1848846390-4151924934-2424675209-500Core{A99DEBF3-8589-4DB1-89FF-B8F2F2D82022}

MicrosoftEdgeUpdateTaskUserS-1-5-21-1848846390-4151924934-2424675209-500UA{970C5224-0326-4398-AF9B-12FAF68CA2EA}

 

Their action seem to be the same, but the MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe path is different, one in Program Files(x86), and the one with sid were in user AppData folder.

 

Why Edge need so many update jobs? And what's the difference between them?
