How Microsoft Edge Updates on Windows and macOS
Like other Chromium-based browsers, Microsoft Edge is designed to download and install updates when they’re available automatically. This only occurs when you close the browser, so Edge will not automatically update itself if you leave it open for extended periods of time.

If you don’t install the update, the ring will eventually turn red. When the update indicator is present, the main Edge menu will include an Update available option that isn’t usually there. Clicking on this option will immediately close the browser, install the updates, reopen the browser, and reopen any tabs you had open.

How to Check For Updates and Update Microsoft Edge on Windows and macOS
While Edge typically updates itself and provides an alert if it hasn’t been updated and needs your intervention, it also has an option to check for and install updates manually.

Here’s how to check for Edge updates manually and install if one is available: Click the menu button (three horizontal dots) in the upper right corner.
