    I see my Edge is running the current version 79.0.309.71. Did it update silently in the background? If so, is that how Edge updates will be delivered going forward?

    Hello,

    Microsoft Edge will automatically check for and install updates to the latest version by default, but you can manually check for updates to see if you have the latest version of Microsoft Edge install.

    Thankyou BRINK and CLIFF. Since we have this wonderful forum reporting changes and updates, I'll just leave Edge set to Automatic Updating, and visit TenForums frequently to stay on top of things. Thanks again!

    If your system is capable of using Application Guard

    Otherwise I would say they are about the same if you set them both up the same way, including and any Flags in about://flags

    I get 403-Forbidden on the Release Notes link here, but not on the Release Notes link in the Security Advisory.

    Perhaps the link changed since last month?
