I tried edge after the update and it went direct to malware.
It was completely locked with the standard popup (and a nice BSOD within a window).
The fix was to launch a new window immediately on starting the browser, then the exploited window could be closed.
Presumably it must have remembered an old page, which was subsequently hacked. (I don't use edge often, it will be even less often, now).
It took me a while to be happy that system wasn't compromised elsewhere.
