Direct download link for Edge Policy Templates
Would it be possible to get a (semi) permanent/fixed URL link for the Microsoft Edge Policy Templates for Microsoft Windows (preferably 64-bit)? There are already "fwlink" direct download links for the latest releases of Microsoft Edge MSI x86/X64, e.g. http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2093437 for MicrosoftEdgeEnterpriseX64.msi Could we please get one for the MicrosoftEdgePolicyTemplates.cab? Currently, we have to go to the Microsoft Edge Enterprise landing page https://aka.ms/EdgeEnterprise and click through the link and agree to the download. A "fwlink" would enable direct download via PowerShell script, or just a single manual click. Thanks, Jonathan
Machine learning powered autofill suggestions
Hello, It looks like a new Machine Learning autofill feature was rolled out with Edge 132 and enabled by default. There is a bug with this setting where even if you have the parent "Save and fill basic info" setting disabled, the Machine Learning suggestions still appear even though the setting is grayed out. This leads to a confusing user experience, because folks that work in enterprise forms with PII try to disable their autofill, only for the feature to remain active. The workaround to disable this feature is to re-enable Autofill, turn of ML suggestions, then disable Autofill again. It looks like there is an enterprise policy to control this setting rolled out on January 17 with Edge 132.0.2957.115. However, I do not see this setting in Intune's Settings Catalog. We are trying to manage in the cloud and avoid creating any more group policies. Is anyone aware of an ETA for this to be added to Settings Catalog? I'd prefer not to set up a Remediation or ADMX CP only for the setting to become available shortly thereafter. Thanks! AndrewUpdate to the latest version of Edge to continue using Copilot
Hello, My organization has about 130 Copilot licenses. We use a controlled rollout for Edge updates to validate compatibility with in-house applications. We are currently on Edge 132.0.2957.115 for our main update ring. My Copilot users are reporting the following message in Edge today when they try to open the Copilot sidebar: Is there documentation somewhere indicating what version of Edge is required to use Copilot? We can't turn on automatic updates, and I'm sure other orgs that have purchased Copilot licenses are in the same boat. Copilot seems to load fine on the M365/Webview2/UWP version. Thanks! AndrewEdge Workspaces error V114
I'm having an issue when selecting the workspaces menu it will "Error: Unable to load workspaces" How do I troubleshoot this issue? I need this resolved and functional as MS has enabled by default and it has rolled out to all users. I was expecting to be able to test this feature before enabling by GPO.Best method for configuring EDGE in Enterprise
Hi, we are a large company almost 10.000 devices. Edge is now configured via group policy, but many legacy settings so cleanup and re-engineering is needed. In that context, we also want to switch to a modern configuration method for EDGE. 'Edge Management Service' is modern/cloud way to configure but lacks reporting and diag tools, while Intune Settings Catalog has reporting but may lack settings for CoPilot and other new features. In a hybrid joined or Entra-ID joined scenario, what is the Best Practice for configuring Microsoft Edge taking into account control, reporting and diagnostics ?
How do you remove "Edge closed unexpectedly"
We are getting a message that says "Restore Pages. Microsoft Edge Closed Unexpectedly." Then there is a big blue "Restore" button. We want to disable this. How do we do it? Supposedly people used to have an option of selecting "Zero" as an option with "RestoreOnStartup" as well as disabling StartupBoostDetected. This no longer seems to work. Any other suggestions? Just to test I changed the registry to "Zero" and you can see in Edge this policy value is no longer supported. Edge Version 102.0.1245.44 (Official build) (64-bit) Windows 10 - 20H2
Managed schema for an edge extension
Hello Team, I am currently developing an extension and integrating policies. I have created a managed_schema for the extension. When I load the unpacked extension in Chrome, the properties appear in chrome://policy as expected. However, in Microsoft Edge, the policies do not appear in edge://policy. I have not found any documentation addressing this issue. Could someone please provide guidance on this discrepancy? Thank you.
Configure 3rd party Edge Extensions
Hi, Browser extension have the possibility to be configured through registry settings via: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\3rdparty\extensions\<extension_id>\policy\environment When a extension is added via the Edge Management Service the policy source is "Cloud", instead of "Platform". So the settings that are configured trough above registry location are not being applied to the extension. Is there a way to apply extension configuration via the Edge Management Service? Or is there a location where the "Cloud" policies are written in the registry? Regards, Jebuz.Setting Google as Default Search Provider (Group Policy)
Hello, I am testing the new Edge browser (I love it btw). Setting IE mode for specific websites and all kinds of other things and its working out great so far. I've noticed that for some reason it completely ignores USER Group Policies so for now I am setting everything under COMPUTER. My issue is that I am trying to make it so that when you search from the address bar or the Office 365 experience new tab page it uses Google instead? I have all these policies and it's not working. Any idea's as to what I am doing wrong/missing here?Edge Sync w/ MS 365 Basic and Business Standard
Hi, I noticed that some of my customers with MS 365 Basic and Business Standard plans can sync their MS Edge information, while others can't. Based in this article, sync only works with plans that include Azure AD Premium P1 and P2, Microsoft 365 Business Premium, and EDU. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-enterprise-sync Could it be that MS is starting to expand to smaller plans? Is there an article with details about this? Thanks...
