EdgeHTML Support

After the official release of the new Microsoft Edge, all of my colleagues still have the old Microsoft Edge. It appears that nothing is actually replaced unless you take manual action.

That’s interesting, given this in the linked article on Microsoft’s blog:

When you install Microsoft Edge on an up-to-date Windows 10 device, it will replace the previous (legacy) version on your device.

Also, note that this is not the automatic rollout. That comes later. Again, users who choose to upgrade their browsers are not the ones we’re worried about. It’s the users who never use anything but the default.

It didn’t happen overnight, but will happen in future Microsoft updates. From the article you linked:

If you’d prefer not to install Microsoft Edge manually, you can wait for it to be installed in a future update to Windows 10, following our measured roll-out approach over the next several months. We will start to migrate Windows 10 customers to the new Microsoft Edge in the coming weeks, starting with a subset of Windows Insiders in the Release Preview ring.

Up-to-date version? :thinking:

I guess that answers these questions.

It’s also worth mentioning that some of my colleagues are running older versions of Windows 10 (and some of them are running the latest version of Windows 10).
