It has finally happened: Microsoft releases the first stable build of Microsoft Edge Chromium. It was not officially announced yet, also, it can be just a test flight. Anyway, the stable Edge Chromium branch is available with the build 77.0.235.9.
The stable channel of Edge Chromium was first discovered on July 30, 2019. At that moment, the installer was just a stub, which was not able to deliver anything to the end user. This time, it installs version 77.0.235.9.
Interested users can grab the build here:
The release is built on the Chromium engine version 77, which is a version ahead of the current stable Google Chrome browser. The actual pre-release versions of Edge Chromium at the moment of this writing are as follows:
- Beta Channel: 76.0.182.16
- Dev Channel: 78.0.244.0 (see what's new in this version)
- Canary Channel: 78.0.249.0
It is a good idea to wait for the official announcement for this release, which should come with a change log for this version, include installation instructions, and general recommendations for users.

Thanks Sergey! This installer worked and I was able to install stable build. Looks good though will stick to Vivaldi. Will this replace default Edge as I dont see the other one now.
Yep, it replaces the classic Edge app.
if only there was a way to download offline installers for Edge Chromium so I don’t have to download it each time on each computer separately
