Hi,

here is where Edge insider policies will show up in Group policy management

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you download the Zip file containing group policies files for Edge insider DEV, open the zip file, go to the "windows" folder => "admx" and copy everything from there to here:

replace SERVERNAME with your own.
