Affected by the epidemic, Microsoft Edge browser stable version announced to suspend updates

Microsoft Edge browser has announced that it will suspend updates to the stable version of Microsoft Edge. The version number will temporarily stay at 80 instead of the planned update of 81, but security updates will not be affected.

The official tweet stated: "Given the current situation, the Edge team will pause updates to the stable channel to Edge 81, which is consistent with the Chromium project. We are committed to ongoing security and stability updates to Edge 80."

There is no doubt that this is affected by the spread of the epidemic in the United States and the start of remote working by most companies. Previously, the Chrome team had issued an announcement stating that updates would be suspended due to adjustments to work schedules.

In addition, Chrome OS, Android application review, and YouTube video review speeds have also been affected.

NASA also announced that due to the continued spread of the new coronavirus in the United States, 17,000 employees must now work from home.

DxOMark has also announced that the release of review content will be delayed due to employees working from home.
