I've just had a coworker show me that error. It also started after the installation of Edge 84.0.552.40.

OS is Windows 10 Enterprise 1909 UBR 900 (June updates).

 

So far I only know about 1 affected installation/user and I cannot reproduce the issue on any of my test systems. Really weird.

 

I've opened a case with Microsoft about it. Let's hope this gets fixed fast before it spreads.

I have a solution:

 

Check if this value exist:  "https://getadmx.com/?Category=Windows_10_2016&Policy=Microsoft.Policies.InternetExplorer::URLFailsPol" in:

Registry Hive : HKLM or HKCU
Registry Path : Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main or Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

 

And delete this

    Thank you, this did fix the issue here as well.  One does have to ask though, how you found this?  Seems like a pretty obscure reg value.  Care to share your process?  I'm also a bit curious as to how that key was created because apparently it didn't exist before yesterday, or something changed on the backend with Edge because we did not see this until yesterday.

     

    I also rolled a client back to IE, then re-applied edge and the problem disappeared. 

     

    Thanks,

      Hi JimKnight , we opened a case with Microsoft, thats where the workaround comes from. For some reason my posts did not get published, so i asked Chris1215  to publish the information in the community.

    Chris1215 Ohh, nice. Thanks for the update.

     

    I just tried that and it does indeed fix the issue. And if you add the registry key it also creates the issue. So I can finally reproduce the issue on my system, sweet.

     

    I had just scheduled a Teams session with a Microsoft support engineer. I'll forward your findings to him and let him know where the issue comes from.
