Yesterday, Microsoft released the Edge 90 update to all users in the stable channel. Unfortunately, things did not go well. Many users, including us, now

Same here, something is very messed up at Microsoft...

I can't even open the Store's main page since last night. Also can't get into the Feedback Hub to report anything b/c I can't sign in (We can't sign you in right now. Please check your connection.). I'm flashing on SolarWind (remember that?) or some kind of major data center upheaval about now--hopefully, this is just over-imagination.

MSN News App and MSN Weather APP are still working here. You'd expect this issue to be resolved by now, it's been a while, right?

Edit: just got an update to the Antimalware Platform, new build is: 4.18.2104.5. Network Inspection Service is running. So that's good.

Edit: here's the source.

Good that fixes are coming, tx, blackice . Can someone access the link in the address box in this snip?

Spoiler

Looking like things are getting fixed. I'm no longer getting errors when it checks for an update and was able to get into the feedback hub. Let's hope it's a hiccup.

I've recently started using Malwarebytes Firewall Control, so I thought it was its fault. I hate when coincidences like this happen.

I initially thought the same..MS needs to get their sh#t together
I'm just going to reinstall and hope for the best

Reinstall Edge? Or MWFC?

Guess I got lucky. The error is back if I go to about Edge. So I’m thinking it’s a server issue, but who knows.

Reinstall Edge

 

[Templarware]

Reinstall Edge

No need... It sometimes successfully looks for updates. It even perfectly matched the time when I disabled MWFC outbound filtering
Just wait for the next update, should fix what is broken.

 

[Cortex]

It's still struggling to check for updates, no point in reinstalling Edge it's Microsoft - Unable to organise a booze up in a brewery people - MS also adopt the same system my children did when at home when something was broken deny all knowledge / Say nothing

Unable to organise a booze up in a brewery people

Agreed,from botched updates to a browser that can't update...Amateur hour at MS

Microsoft Edge's update server is suffering a worldwide outage preventing users from updating to the newly released version 90 of the web browser.
Yesterday, Microsoft released Edge 90 with new features, such as a Kids Mode, the new download flyout, better font rendering, and improved PDF printing.
This update also fixed a zero-day remote code execution vulnerability that was publicly released this week on Twitter, so it's probably a good idea to update it as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, since this morning, users have been unable to autoupdate Microsoft Edge to version 90 and are instead greeted with the following 0x800421F7 error when attempting to do so:

"An error occurred while checking for updates: Unable to connect to the Internet. If you use a firewall, please allowlist MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.exe. (error code 7: 0x800421F7 -- system level)."

Microsoft Edge's update server is down - shows error code 7
