Hey all. Lovin the new edge browser but am a bit confused with the extensions. I installed several from the chrome store but but don't get how to update them, is it an automatic process? For example I have Lastpass version 4.40.2 but I see version 4.41 is available but only option is to remove from chrome.
Thanx for your help.

You can use it in W7. Did you know that the Chromium Edge is available for Windows 7/8/8.1/10 and macOS?

What do you see if you select Settings > Extensions (or open the page edge://extensions)? I would expect the option to update would be displayed there when a newer version is available (and not displayed if an extension is up to date).

Visit the Chrome Store again, and go to the Lastpass store page. Has the "Install" button changed to an "Update" button?

How? Was it automatic? Or did Edge notify you that an update was available? Or something else?

Thanks, good to know. I asked because I've not yet had an extension that needed an update.
