Has the dev channel been updated yet ?
In Insider Edge, when it's set as your default browser, and you click a link in a program that opens your browser(when it's closed) you will sometimes see this, if the browser was not open already:
(Example from using CPU-Z's validation)
Microsoft Edge (Chromium) Administrator Mode Detected – Explained (It is a Security Feature): Microsoft Edge (Chromium) Administrator Mode Detected - Explained
Microsoft Edge (Chromium) Administrator Mode Detected – Explained
Administrator Mode Detected is a security feature, and the warning suggests users to close the browser and run it without admin rights. It is because running the browser with administrator privileges can cause the browser to behave abnormally under various situations and it highly risky. It’s because whenever you run any program or software that open up from the Edge Chromium will take over its security level.
For example, if you launch Edge Chromium with admin rights and launch it from the browser, then that particular program or process will also run with administrator rights.
It is highly risky if you download and install a program that contains malicious code or malware. This will not only force the browser to behave abnormally but also gain full access to the browser accompanied by Windows.
What we suggest?
If you ever see a message that Microsoft Edge – Administrator Mode Detected, all you need to do is to close the browser and relaunch it from the desktop icon so that it won’t runs with administrator privileges.
No, it hasn't...it's been over a week now...The channel started on the 8th of the month, so i thought for sure it would have been updated either monday or tuesday but it was not...wonder what is going on...It is supposed to get WEEKLY updates...
For me, the Development channel Edge with Chrome is running really great and i made it my default browser! The only mystery is why is it not getting a weekly update...

And we still haven't received the first weekly update for Dev channel...And no mention from microsoft about it on the Edge development forum...
Is Canary that stable? (Dev is extremely stable) i am almost tempted to switch over but not sure if it would be a good idea...especially since Dev is working so well for me...
Yes I've not had any issues from Canary. The only reason Ive not used it lately is because I need the translator in Chrome.
New dev build coming soon.
