You can download Microsoft Edge Dev. From the official Edge Insider website. If you are already using the dev channel, go to edge://settings/help to install the latest release. However, it’s worth noting that many users report hangs and crashes after updating to version 115.0.1880.1, so it’s best not to use Edge Dev or Canary as your primary browser.
Microsoft plans to release Edge 115 to all stable channel users the week of July 20, 2023. Beta channel insiders will get it next week.
