Why can't the Edge browser update through the App Store in Win10 system?

Use tools officially provided by Microsoft to upgrade Win10 according to the update method, keep all the original items, and the upgrade is very fast. It will take about 30 minutes to complete. After the upgrade, I can see that there is no "windows App Store" or edge browser. Why can't Edge browsers be updated through the app store like other Modern apps? Gabriel Aul, Project Leader of Microsoft Insider, gave the answer. Let's take a look at it!

The most attractive part of this update is that the Edge browser adds the quick access history function. This is not a major update, but for Edge browsers, even small changes always need to be passed to users through the new Win10 Build.

Gabriel Aul replied on Twitter that Edge browsers need to be released with Win10 because Edge browsers use some special APIs, these APIs are unavailable to other store applications.

That is to say, Edge is closely related to the underlying system and cannot be released separately, just like the IE browser Microsoft is abandoning. However, this update mechanism has no advantages over other browsers, but Microsoft has changed Win10 to a service to accelerate its update speed, edge browsers can also be updated at a faster frequency.
