MicrosoftEarly preview of Microsoft Edge group policies
Ruud van Velsen The policy wasn't ready when Sean shared the administrative template zip file. It will be in the next version we share.
Keith Davis Thanks, that makes sense.
Two things that we're working on here:
1. We're working on a feature that will help users get back to their work profile from their personal MS profile when accessing these work sites.
2. We are considering revamping this HTTPAuth experience to avoid prompting users for creds. We will simply ask if we should release creds from the OS to auth users to the site. If the user then says yes, we will use ambient authentication to auth them to the website. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
With these features coming, do you think you would still need the policy to use the username password field instead of windows hello?

But switching profiles just to login? That makes for more work, plus that means their Favorites and other settings will have to be duplicated across profiles.

Right now, using Integrated Authorization (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/integrated-authorization-for-intranet-sites/m-p/1118712), we don't have to do this, except when the users are remote.
