Specifically, the older or "legacy" Edge browser will get removed via a security update coming on April 13, 2021, representing Microsoft's "B-week" patch distribution schedule.

After being replaced by the vastly-improved Chromium-based version, Microsoft is saying goodbye to the legacy version of Edge next year.

Microsoft on Monday announced a timeline on when support for the Internet Explorer 11 browser and the 'legacy' (EdgeHTML) version of the Microsoft Edge browser will end.

On April 13th, Microsoft will release a cumulative monthly patch that will remove the legacy version of Edge from Windows 10 computers.

Since Microsoft switched its Edge browser to the Chromium engine, it's released a steady stream of updates and enhancements, and now that 2021 is upon us, development shows no signs of slowing ...

Specifically, Microsoft Edge Legacy support will be sunset on March 9, 2021. After that date, Microsoft will no longer provide security updates for the aging browser.

At Build 2021, Microsoft is launching Edge version 91. The new version of the browser comes with Startup Boost and Sleeping Tabs.

Early in the year, Microsoft finally pulled the plug on the legacy version of Edge, and fully concentrated on pushing forward with the Chromium-based incarnation of the browser.

Prior to that, Microsoft brought vertical tabs to Mac, sleeping tabs, a password generator, new visual themes, and more. The browser can be downloaded from the Microsoft Edge website.

According to Microsoft representatives that spoke to Neowin, the standalone Chromium Edge browser will be supported (with new versions available) on Windows 7 through at least July 15 th, 2021.

Starting later this year, Microsoft Edge will adopt the same four-week update cycle that Google Chrome announced earlier this month.
