Dev channel update to 86.0.608.2 is live
josh_bodner When will RoamingProfileSupportEnabled actually work? Its called out that it was added as of version 85 but it doesn't actually do anything or work, doesn't even create the Edge folder in AppData/Roaming/Microsoft.
billroland have you seen our documentation on it? That might help you get it working: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/folder-redirection/deploy-roaming-user-profiles.
josh_bodner I've been using roaming user profiles in on-premises Active Directory domains since Windows 2000. I know a lot of people hate them but I've always had good luck in my organization. Anyway, it always worked fine with Internet Explorer for 20 years, it works fine with Chrome now, but with Edge it doesn't. Even after enabling the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#configureonpremisesaccountautosignin policy, it still wants me to sign in to the cloud for sync to work. It really shouldn't be this complicated.
billroland I'm no policy expert, but the way I understand https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#roamingprofilesupportenabled is that you can use it in conjunction with the SyncDisabled policy to stop the sync prompts. For that matter, we shouldn't be that different from Chrome in this particular area, so I'm curious how different your Edge configuration is than your Chrome one at this point.
