However, the Beta version installs without any problems. If you look closely, the beta version of Microsoft Edge is still on the version 76.0.182.19. Moreover, the Canary and Dev channels have moved to version 77. The early release of the beta version hints that Microsoft is launching the testing process very soon. It seems like the leaked beta build install didn’t go well for many. The recent reports suggest that the browser crashes very often, or completely fails to launch sometimes.
