# Microsoft Edge
|
|
|
|
Windows Autopatch uses the [Stable Channel](/deployedge/microsoft-edge-channels#stable-channel) of Microsoft Edge.
|
|
|
|
## Device eligibility
|
|
|
|
For a device to be eligible for Microsoft Edge updates as a part of Windows Autopatch, they must meet the following criteria:
|
|
|
|
- The device must be powered on and have an internet connection.
|
|
- There are no policy conflicts between Windows Autopatch policies and customer policies.
|
|
- The device must be able to access the required network endpoints to reach the Microsoft Edge update service.
|
|
- If Microsoft Edge is open, it must restart for the update process to complete.
|
|
|
|
## Update release schedule
|
|
|
|
Microsoft Edge will check for updates every 10 hours. Quality updates occur weekly by default. Feature updates occur automatically every four weeks and are rolled out [progressively](/deployedge/microsoft-edge-update-progressive-rollout) by the Microsoft Edge product group to ensure the best experience for customers. All users will see the update within a few days of the initial release.
|
|
|
|
Browser updates with critical security fixes will have a faster rollout cadence than updates that don't have critical security fixes to ensure prompt protection from vulnerabilities.
|
|
|
|
Devices in the Test device group receive feature updates from the [Beta Channel](/deployedge/microsoft-edge-channels#beta-channel). This channel is fully supported and automatically updated with new features approximately every four weeks.
|
|
|
|
## Pausing and resuming updates
|
|
|
|
Currently, Windows Autopatch can't pause or resume Microsoft Edge updates.
|
|
|
|
## Incidents and outages
