Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge Update\Applications\Microsoft Edge Dev Description
When this policy is enabled, and auto-update is enabled, Microsoft Edge will be updated to the version specified by this policy value. The policy value must be a specific Microsoft Edge version, e.g. 83.0.499.12. If a device has newer version of Microsoft Edge than the value specified, Microsoft Edge will remain on the newer version and not downgrade to the specified version. If the specified version does not exist, or is improperly formatted, then Microsoft Edge will remain on its current version and not update to future versions automatically. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2136707 for more information. This policy is available only on Windows instances that are joined to a Microsoft® Active Directory® domain.
