How do I know if I have the latest version of Edge? My windows gets updated all the time.

When I check Settings, General, and at bottom, under About this APP:

Microsoft Edge 44.... with a whole bunch of numbers

Microsoft EdgeHTML 18.18363 

When I go to a site (that is not Microsoft ) to check my latest version it says I do not have the latest browser, that it is 81 but I have 44!!! I check on Internet explorer and it says I am version 11....

But in Microsoft it says that windows updates automatically carries the update to the Microsoft edge.

And I check my windows updates and it says I am up-to-date.  

But it is so hard to find on the Microsoft site whether I am updated or not. I just want everything to be up to date. I only use Edge.

Do I need to download the Microsoft Edge again? Will it harm my computer in any way or add more files for nothing?

Help!

Hello S.S.6,

But before you update your Edge browser, Make sure to backup your favorites first.

I'm dumbfounded in that every time I log in, At the very top it keeps telling me to download  the latest browser for microsoft edge which I thought that I did it a month or two months ago. Shouldn't this dam smart computer know that I already did it or it should tell me that I failed?

Hi

Hit the 3 bars on top right of page.. Go To Settings  Then look down left panel and Click "About Microsoft Edge"

That will tell you what version you are using and if it needs Up-Dated or not.

Cheers
