Our developers resolved a similar issue for Chrome about a year ago. The issue stemmed from the fact that an update to Chrome replaces it's on-disk files while Chrome and still running and this causes a mismatch between the code signature of the on-disk version of Chrome and the in-memory version of Chrome.

Our developers were able to improve the situation for Chrome's updater and, if the message in Edge is caused by a similar situation, then hopefully things can be improved there as well in the future. For now, restarting your Microsoft Edge when you see the message is the best best option.
