Thank youconalw and blomsterharry. We are working on bring Microsoft Edge to as many platforms as we can. We just released for macOS this week. It would help us understand the priority of various platforms if you could give us an idea of what scenarios we would unblock for you by bringing the browser to the various versions of Server. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

We installed Ent Dev V. 78 on a Win 2019 Server with Citrix. Installation worked with no errors, but Edge does only work if we access the server with VMWare console (with "administrator mode detected" message mentioned above). With RDS or Citrix Session the browser starts with a white screen, it starts hundreds of tabs and CPU runs up to 100%. This behaviour is user independant (faulty as admin and as user).

Hey guys, we made it work! Thanks to the hint of Thilo, we made the following registry change:
1. Open Registry Editor
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\CtxHook
3. Create a REG_SZ string "ExcludedImageNames"
4. Enter the value "msedge.exe,nacl64.exe"
The new Edge starts now without any issues in Citrix and RDS Session...!
