Microsoft Edge on Mac crashes

I recently heard about the Microsoft Edge available on Mac and decided to try it out, so I downloaded on the website and follow the instructions. But once it's installed, the app pops like like any other Mac apps, but it instantly crashed and closed by itself, even with several times of reinstalling. Is there anything I could do to fix this? Like something needed to change in the settings?

    Problem solved: 

    Download and reinstall the Microsoft Edge from Safari instead. Other browsers won't work.

    Unfortunately that did not work for me.  

    When I open Edge, it just immediately crashes on my MAC running Catalina.

    I have the exact same issue and couldn't resolve it with safari. Same thing occurs with beta and dev version.

    Same issue on iMac. Tried downloading from multiple browsers and restarts etc.

    Edge menu briefly appears and then it crashes. 

    It Works fine on my MacPro though. Could not figure out the problem.
