Microsoft Edge doesn't get updated with Windows updates



I have Microsoft EdgeHTML 15.15063, but I want to update to the latest stable release of EdgeHTML. I regularly apply Windows updates, but the browser hasn't been getting updated automatically, despite the fact that it's the only way I know of to update the browser.




Is there a way to download a manual patch? Or is there something that might prevent Edge from getting updates?



I have Windows 10 Enterprise.



My solution: Thanks for the information. I have accepted the answer that led me to discover the actual problem. I found that my version update was failing. I ran chkdsk /r (which found and repaired a problem with Windows Update) and rebooted. My updates were able to be successfully installed after that.

I want to update to the latest stable release of EdgeHTML.





If you want the current stable release of EdgeHTML, it means you must upgrade your installation, to Windows 10 1709 or Windows 10 1803. EdgeHTML 17 is technically the current version, but EdgeHTML 16, is considered the current stable version.




  • Windows 10 April 2018 Update includes EdgeHTML 17


  • Windows 10 Fall Creators Update includes EdgeHTML 16






Is there a way to download a manual patch?




You can manually download the current 1709 or 1803 Windows 10 ISO. However, EdgeHTML 16 and EdgeHTML 17, can only run on their respected versions.



In other words, it is not possible to update EdgeHTML 15, which is included in the Windows 10 Creators Update (1703), to a newer version unless you upgrade Windows to the respected version.

If you have installed all the currently released cumulative updates for Windows 10 Version 1703 then you have the current version of EdgeHTML 15. If you have KB4103731 installed, then you are running 15063.1088, which means you are using the current version of EdgeHTML 15.
