This article describes the release cadence and anticipated release schedule for Microsoft Edge.
Microsoft Edge is an internet browser made by Microsoft, which is installed by default on all new Windows computers. Edge was made to replace Internet Explorer, and runs faster and with more features. The truth is that some websites will work faster with one web browser over another, but Edge doesn't have an edge that Chrome or Firefox don't. Can I save Microsoft Edge page links on my desktop? You can create web page shortcuts on your desktop, but Microsoft seems to have made it difficult.
The new Microsoft Edge is based on Chromium and was released on January 15, 2020. It is compatible with all supported versions of Windows, and macOS. With speed, performance, best in class compatibility for websites and extensions, and built-in privacy and security features, it's the only browser you'll ever need. Microsoft Edge puts the web to work for you. We will help keep you safe on the web and prevent unauthorized access of your browsing data. We will give you visibility into how your browsing data is collected and used so you can make informed decisions.
Release cadence
Microsoft provides four options, called channels, to manage how often Microsoft Edge is updated with new features. The Microsoft Edge team plans to push public updates to the Beta and Stable channels every six weeks. For more information about our channels, their release cycle, and support levels, see the Channel overview.

Note
Starting with Stable channel version 94, Microsoft Edge is moving to a 4-week major release cycle cadence. However, we recognize that enterprise customers who manage complex environments need more time to plan and test Microsoft Edge updates. To help our enterprise customers who need an extended timeline to manage updates, Microsoft Edge will offer an Extended Stable option aligned to a longer, 8-week major release cycle; this option will only be available for customers with managed environments.
Release schedule
The following table lists the planned release dates for the Beta and Stable channels.

Release dates are approximate and might vary based on build status.

Progressive rollouts
The date reference (Released/Release week) for the Stable channel references the beginning of the progressive roll out.
We use a progressive rollout model which means that new release availability for any given device could be staggered over upcoming days. For more information, see Progressive rollouts for Microsoft Edge Stable Channel.
