Supported Operating Systems for Microsoft Edge
Note
Product functionality and feature availability may vary on older operating systems. To ensure that Microsoft Edge installs correctly, use the latest version of any operating system specified below. This guidance includes the latest cumulative update, as applicable.
Windows Client

- Windows 10 Enterprise 2015 LTSC
- Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSC

Windows Server

- Windows Server 2019 (LTSC)
- Windows Server 2022 (LTSC)

Important
** For Windows 10 SAC releases that are out of support but Microsoft Edge is supported it is recommended to upgrade to a supported Win10 SAC release as soon as possible to remain secure. Microsoft Edge being supported in this state should be considered a temporary bridge to getting to a supported OS state.
**** The Microsoft Edge OPK is available on MOO for IoT OEMs to preinstall and distribute as part of their Windows 10 IoT Enterprise based solution.
