After installing this stable version, I can't find the old Edge in start menu. Even my pinned shortcut is removed. It's present here of course: "C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe" but there's only the new Edge in start menu.

After installation of the new Edge (Chromium), the old Edge is being replaced. It is normal behavior.

Didn't happen the last time I installed the Beta version. I could use both. But this time it happened after installing the stable.

Yes, it only happens with the stable version. Forgot to mention this in my previous post.

I've made the switch to this version of Edge. I tried a few of the Beta's and canary builds and really enjoyed them. This has now replaced Chrome on my laptop. Only issue I've had is with Sophos as Sophos keeps saying it has detected an exploit (I think it's something to with Windscribe being installed as it doesn't happen otherwise). This ha sbeen reported to Sophos. No other issues and running really well.
Cause if you remove Edge Chromium, the Legacy Edge is recovered.It doesn't remove the old Edge but makes it invisible to the naked eyes
Not to mention Microsoft wants to keep compatibility with UWP Apps that use Webview on the Legacy Edge engine.

Got a new update to version 79.0.309.7 today.
Doesn't fix the rendering problems I have on some sites unfortunately.

Thanks for update notice.
Um, have you shared "some sites" in this thread?

No I haven't, great idea, just reported them to MS.
An example is this site: AskVG - Windows Tips, Troubleshooting and Customization
Fonts are a lot smaller when displayed in Stable, no such problem with Beta, Dev or Google Chrome stable.
Hope other members can confirm this with Stable?

I see no difference in all 3 browsers (stable, dev and Google chrome), they are all the same font size.
I think you should check in settings and reset fontsize at 100%
