If anyone wants to search the store as suggested by techie, the current list of extensions in the Store for Edge are the following:

AdBlock
Adblock Plus
Pin It Button
Translator for Microsoft Edge
LastPass: Free Password manager
OneNote Web Clipper
Evernote Web
Amazon Assistant
Office Online
Save to Pocket
Reddit Enhancement Suite
Mouse Gestures
Page Analyzer

It seems that the extension issue at the store has finally been fixed. I tested a desktop and tablet. I'm going to stay away from the preview issue, since these are not preview systems.

If you just view the preview option shortcut in settings it was creating this. I just don't want to test and have to look at the ugly red "Your insider preview build settings need attention. Go to Windows Insider Program to fix this issue."  I really don't know if the issue is fixed.

After reading your post....

I clicked "get extensions from the store", and still got a blank page...
THEN
I clicked on "Apps"
i scrolled down to "Extensions for Microsoft Edge"... and saw some extensions.
I clicked on "show all", and got a dedicated extensions page showing 13 extensions.
THEN
I closed the browser, and reopened it
I clicked "get extensions from the store", this time the dedicated extensions page opened.

OT: Still can't import favorites from FireFox :(

I saw it reported that the HTML import from the 64x version of Firefox didn't work but did with the 32x version. The only other solution I'm aware of is a round-about route by exporting to Chrome and then from chrome importing to Edge.

If anyone else is still having problems installing extensions, via https://twitter.com/CollWilliams/status/764219819616972801, see Windows Store Edge Extension Installation Issues - Microsoft Community.

To check for App updates, launch Store.  If there are any updates, it will show as a number in the upper right corner [i.e., Updates (5)].  Just click on the Update link and you will be taken to a page showing the available updates for your Windows apps.  (You can uncheck any App updates you don't want to install for some reason.)
