Summary

Microsoft announced the public release of the new Edge on January 15, 2020. In June 2020, Microsoft began automatic rollout of the new version via Windows Update for Windows 7, 8.1, and Windows 10 versions from 1803 to 2004. However, if you want to remove/uninstall New Edge and go back to Legacy Edge, then perform these steps. Press Windows + R key. This will open Run; Type appwiz.cpl and click OK. Scroll and spot Edge. Right click on Edge and select Uninstall. Follow the onscreen steps and once it is completed, you will get Legacy Edge. Regards, Aditya Roy.

Microsoft has released a new Chromium-based version of Microsoft Edge. This new version provides best in class compatibility with extensions and websites. Additionally, this new version provides great support for the latest rendering capabilities, modern web applications, and powerful developer tools across all supported OS platforms.
