Microsoft Edge is updated with the rest of Windows, by Windows Update.

In addition, you can always open Microsoft Edge and go to: Help and Feedback > About Microsoft Edge

Doing that will automatically update Microsoft Edge to its latest version, if it needs to be updated.

    Hi,

    This website shows the current versions of the Edge browser, with Stable being the default for all users.

    To check whether Microsoft Edge is up to date and see which version is installed:

    1. Open Microsoft Edge.
    2. Select Settings and more (the three dots in the upper-right corner).
    3. Select Help and feedback > About Microsoft Edge.
    4. On the About Microsoft Edge page, Edge automatically checks for updates:
      • If it shows Microsoft Edge is up to date., the latest version is installed.
      • If it shows An update is available. Select Download and install to proceed., select Download and install, then restart Edge when prompted.

    Tip: Typing edge://settings/help in the address bar and pressing Enter opens the About Microsoft Edge page directly.

    To verify the version number itself, look at the top of the About Microsoft Edge page; the installed version is displayed there.

    On Windows 11, Edge updates can also come via Windows Update:

    1. Select Start > Settings > Windows Update.
    2. Select Check for updates and install any available updates.
