Louis,
Thank you for having provided all of the information in your two messages to the list about how to acquire the new version of Microsoft Edge. Clearly, you know more than I did on this subject.
Blake

Hello Rob,

Once you open the web page, use your button search feature to find the "Get stable build for Windows 10" button.

Hit the button.

You will be taken to a web page with terms and conditions to use edge. Go to the bottom of that page and find the "Accept terms and download Microsoft Edge"  link. Hit it. 
Then you will be taken to a standard download page.

I'm on the site you suggested. Where do I go to download Edge? It says "Sellect your OS to download, but I can't find a way to select my OS.

Hello Rob,

The new Edge is out.

----
Spoiler alert, it is accessible.
Right on schedule, one year after Microsoft announced they were going to switch to Chromium for their next version of Edge, it is now available to the general public running Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 and recent versions of Mac OS.

You can download the new browser from
https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.microso
ft.com%2Fedge&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cd3e673841c6741bdc25a08d79a71157c%7C84df9
e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637147682785557162&sdata=dHZ%2Bbfm
SwKBOQGXDG6sydIrpHFgJEhrSVZ%2BbmIv7WwY%3D&reserved=0
 and once you install it, any Windows 10 icon for Microsoft Edge (desktop, taskbar, start menu and/or live tile) will take you to the new Edge.
According to tech blogs, Microsoft is going to push this version to all Windows 10 users through Windows Update at some point but for now, anyone can download it from the link above.

Accessibility

My initial test with Fusion proved positive. The first time you run the new Edge, if you are running a screen reader, you will be presented with a link to learn about the new accessibility features in the new Edge browser.
Webpage navigation with JAWS is about as snappy as it is with Google Chrome.
I also tested Supernova, which immediately cried foul when the original Edge browser was loaded. Supernova no longer directs you to use Google Chrome or Internet Explorer, probably because it detects the Chromium resources and treats the browser as if it was another fork of Chrome. Reading the web with Supernova actually works on the new Edge browser.

	Hi Rob,
According to a member of the JAWS Users group which I own on Facebook, the new Microsoft Edge will be rolling out gradually with most people being offered it sometime this spring. Here is a link to a Microsoft support article about the accessibility features in the new version of Edge. Article
title: "Accessibility with the new Microsoft Edge":

Subject: [GUI-Talk] new microsoft edge

Hello all:

 

My understanding was that the new Microsoft Edge was suppose to roll out a couple of days ago on the 15th. I have been using the new Beta version of tis. According to articles I have read, it was suppose to update automatically. However, I got a prompt a couple of months ago saying that I woulde be prompted to download something when the new official version of Edge was to roll out. Can someone set me straight on this?

 

Thanks in advance.
