If M$ Edge was built via the AUR then it’s likely this:
It absolutely has been maintained, but by it’s AUR maintainer, not by Manjaro – it is you, the administrator of your own system, who is ultimately responsible for maintaining any software sourced via the AUR.
If you use the AUR, you are expected to re-build AUR software after updating from the official Manjaro repositories.
Use of the AUR is not officially supported by Manjaro or Arch Linux. If using the AUR despite the usual warnings given, it’s recommended to switch to the Manjaro Unstable branch which is the closest to Arch Stable, which the AUR was designed for.
If you wish to continue using Edge:
1. Remove the old and insecure version:
sudo pacman -Rns microsoft-edge-stable-bin
2. Build the latest version via the AUR:
pamac build microsoft-edge-stable-bin

- Follow this reliable guide on how to:
Install Microsoft Edge in Arch Linux and Manjaro.
I should mention that the state of M$ Edge on your machine might indicate that maintaining your system has not been high among your priorities. This, in itself, can contribute to many of the issues you are describing.
Just something to consider.
