To do this, what we will do is search for new package updates in the repositories of our distro, and download those that are available. That is, through the corresponding package manager. To bring Edge up to date when there are new versions, what we have to do is update it like any other program installed on our system. When we enter it we can see information about the version, but not the browser updater itself. Refresh the browserĬontrary to what happens with the version of the browser for Windows, in the case of Edge for Linux we cannot update it from the “About” section. Likewise, we can change the name of the package to “microsoft-edge-dev” or “microsoft-edge-beta” depending on the version of the browser that we want to install. Sudo zypper install microsoft-edge-stable Sudo rpm -import sudo zypper ar microsoft-edge-dev sudo zypper refresh To do this, we must also change a little the commands that we must execute, leaving them as follows: If you are using Microsoft Edge on multiple platforms, feel free to share your thoughts with the rest of us.Microsoft also allows us to install your browser on OpenSUSE-based distros. Obviously, most of this browser's users are on Windows, but it's refreshing to know that it can be used on all major platforms. In addition to Linux, Microsoft Edge is also available on Android, iOS, and macOS.

The new release comes in the same format as the one previously provided on the Microsoft Edge Insider website, namely.

In the worst-case scenario, the first stable version comes with full support at least for the same distros. Silently introduced by Microsoft on its website, Edge for Linux (at least in its initial release) supported Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, and openSUSE.

Now, the time has come for the first stable version of Microsoft Edge for Linux to go live. Two years later and about one year after the introduction of the first Windows and macOS betas of the Chromium-based Edge browser, the first public preview of the Linux version arrived as well. In late 2018, Microsoft announced the switch to a Chromium-based web browser and also confirmed that Edge would also be available on additional platforms.
