ECOI

  • A command Script to install Microsoft Edge (Chromium) offline with working Edge Update

basically, an alternative to Enterprise MSI installers, with the ability to install any version for any channel


Requirements

  • Latest untagged meta installer for Microsoft Edge Update:

https://msedgesetup.azureedge.net/latest/MicrosoftEdgeSetup.exe

you can also acquire it from this page (search for: MicrosoftEdgeUpdateSetup)

https://edgeupdates.microsoft.com/api/products

  • Latest offline installer for Microsoft Edge:

http://pldm.ml/edge

  • choose desired channel / architecture
  • choose desired / latest build
  • click Get button
  • download the biggest file, example: MicrosoftEdge_X64_83.0.472.0.exe
  • rename the file after download, keeping the original name

How To

  • Place both downloaded files above next to the script in the same folder

alt text

  • If you run EdgeChromiumInstaller.cmd without administrator privileges:

you get the option to install Edge for current user only
capabilities to set Edge as default browser will be missing

  • If you run EdgeChromiumInstaller.cmd as administrator:

you get the option to install Edge for current user, or all users / system wide (except Canary channel)
capabilities to set Edge as default browser will be available

  • For Windows x64 OS, you can choose between x64/x86 Edge if both installers are detected

  • Choose the desired Channel

  • Choose the desired Language

  • Choose Installation Type: System or User

this option is available only with administrator privileges, and selected channel is not Canary

  • At the end, choose to Start Installation or Exit

Remarks

  • Installation will be executed silently

if it succeeded, MS Edge shortcut will appear on Desktop (and Taskbar)

if it failed, check these log files for details:

"%ProgramData%\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\Log\MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.log"
"%temp%\MicrosoftEdgeUpdate.log"
"%temp%\msedge_installer.log"
  • To set MS Edge Canary as default browser:

run EdgeChromiumInstaller.cmd as administrator and perform the installation

then, go to Control Panel / Default Programs / Set your default programs


Command Line Switches

  • All switches are case-insensitive, works in any order, but must be separated with spaces

  • You can use the long form or the short form for channel and level

  • Architecture is determined based on the detected offline installer
    for Windows x64/arm64, 64-bit installer takes precedence if detected with 32-bit installer (x86)

  • language:

/L lang

mandatory switch, it must be specified

  • channel:
/Canary
/Dev
/Beta
/Stable
/CC
/CD
/CB
/CS

if not specified, default is Stable
if multiple switches are specified, the last one takes precedence

  • installation level:
/System
/User
/S
/U

if not specified, default is System (with admin privileges), or User (without admin privileges)
if multiple switches are specified, the last one takes precedence
Canary channel always default to User level

  • Examples:

install Edge Canary, french language
EdgeChromiumInstaller.cmd /canary /l fr

install Edge Stable, english language, system level

EdgeChromiumInstaller.cmd /L en
EdgeChromiumInstaller.cmd /L en /Stable
EdgeChromiumInstaller.cmd /L en /Stable /System
