A new edition of Edge has been released by Microsoft and is available for all supported platforms. In addition to the new features that everyone can try, there is also a big change from the company.
Starting with the Microsoft Edge version 83, the company from Redmond is starting to use a progressive mood for the fixed channel browser.
The concept of progressive mood may be new to some, but we have all known it for a long time. Let's try to understand what it is and why Microsoft uses it.
First of all, progressive rollouts mean that not all users will be able to get a new stable version of Microsoft Edge on day one. Instead of pushing the update to everyone, Microsoft makes each new version from version 83 onward gradually available on Appliances of the whole world.
Once the release begins, Microsoft begins to collects comments to determine the reliability of the Edge update. If all goes well, then the company can move on to the next phase of the release and make the update available on more devices. If this does not happen and some devices are having problems, then the company may suspend the release to prevent problems on more computers.
Yes it is the same marketing strategy that the company uses for the new ones feature updates of Windows 10. Devices start receiving Windows 10 updates gradually as Microsoft analyzes them data telemetry, trying to resolve what is being presented.
The progressive disposition system is available at Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and Windows 10.
The release of new fixed updates of Microsoft Edge can therefore take several days. However, rollout times will be much shorter for each upcoming update security.
