Before I'd upgraded* my Windows 7 Ultimate rig to Windows 10 several months ago (just before Win7 fell out of support), I was using the Edge for Windows 7 on it (since IE11 wasn't working well anymore, and Chrome was giving me some grief -- would more often use FireFox or Opera as they seemed to be more stable for me). I was regularly using Edge (had installed it when it became available for Windows 7), and It worked well -- except in those cases where the coding in a web application would select IE6 compatible code whenever it detected "Microsoft" in the browser ID (I still can't figure out why code like that *still* exists today -- ever since IE7/8, such coding really shouldn't be necessary -- not necessary if most [if not all] your users had already migrated away from Windows XP and older).

* I did originally did the upgrade to see if
1. to see if it work on my computer
2. to see if rumors I'd heard that the "free upgrade" still worked long after the offer period had already expired
I was pleasantly surprised -- it actually worked - mostly. And yes, the upgrade "took" and indeed the upgraded OS did show up as being activated. The minor hitch of course was that I lost the use of the XP mode VM (since the license for it is tied to Windows 7 -- it doesn't get carried over with the upgrade). and Virtual PC stopped working since hardware virtualization wasn't enabled at the BIOS level.
As a precaution, I *did* make sure to image the harddisk prior to trying out the upgrade. After the intial try, I did roll back to Windows 7 to deal with the hardware virtualization problem (and it turned out I needed to update the BIOS** for that option to actually work).
** Performing a BIOS update could be a bit scary -- there's that old joke about what "re-flashing the BIOS" could be interpreted as "in a flash, everything goes wrong". The idea that you could potentially "brick your system" wasn't comfortable. Because of this I made sure that I had another rig available to migrate to if the worst happened. I did have a "scary moment" when after enabling hardware virtualization i the BIOS (after updating the BIOS) -- the computer went into a reboot cycle (i.e. it would begin boot, get to the Windows logo, then promptly go into reboot). Took a few other "tweaks" in the BIOS and OS, but I finally got everything working (though again required several more reboot cycles before everything came up)
