Edge Chromium to Launch January 15 on Windows, macOS, Confirms Microsoft

Nov. 5, 2019



In case you’re interested in trying out the new browser, you’ll be glad to know that Microsoft has just launched a Release Candidate (RC) on the beta channel, which means, barring some unforeseen events, the software is near enough to the final stable version that’s slated to launch in a few weeks’ time. According to Microsoft, the stable channel will be updated on a similar timeline to the beta branch, which means users should expect updates every six weeks.GIF Courtesy: Microsoft (via The Verge)

The development comes just a couple of days after the company revealed a new icon through an elaborate Easter Egg hunt.
