All Microsoft Edge users should now be seeingversion 100 of the web browseras an update. This comes two weeks after version 100 hit the beta channel with Edge Insiders. Yet despite the big version number, there’s nothing major in this release, with Microsoft just noting five changes.

The five changes in version 100 cover the change in the user-agent string, tweaks for Microsoft 365 application protocols, hardware-enforced stack protection, and PDFs. These all have been tested with Edge Insiders over the past few months. Here’s the full change log of added features, from Microsoft.

For folks who usually keep track of policy changes, there’s a bunch added in this release, and some that are also depreciated too. Check Microsoft’s change log for those. As always, Edge should download this update automatically, but if it doesn’t, just head to theHelp and Feedbackmenu in Edge, chooseAbout Microsoft Edge, and then restart the web browser when prompted.

It has been nearly two years since the new Chromium based Microsoft Edge launched, and the browser has slowly made its way to the top. The latestStatcounter report from Marchhas Edge as the #2 browser in the world, with a 9.65% share. That’s behind Chrome, which has 67.29%.
