Family Safety parental controls for Edge on Chromium
- Apr 14, 2019We have not released any information on that yet, SeitzM. What controls are you most interested in?

My name is Drew. The 1903 was added to the sake of a User Name. Yes, Parental controls are part of Win10. The thing to keep in mind is Edge C. is not yet the OS's browser. Right now, Edge, still, is. I suggest that once Edge C. is the OS's, actual, browser (not Edge, anymore) the OS Parental Controls will affect it. This is why flags are necessary, at this time & not after Edge C. is released, no more than Edge requires any such thing, now. Things are different (more seamless) when (once) the browser is, actually, an integral part of the OS (and not beta test versions).
Cheers,
Drew
Hmmm, the settting do not seem to work. Open Edge (Legacy) does.
Thoughts?

To what "setting" (where) are you referring? If you are talking about the OS Parental Control settings... they will work for Edge-ium when it, actually, replaces Edge in the OS. Same logic as to why Timeline works with Edge & not, Edge-ium. Until it has replaced Edge, this should not seem wrong nor surprising.
NB: Even, if & when Dev or Canary are made the Default browser (instead of Edge), Timeline doesn't/won't work w/ Edge-ium. (Yes, we know extensions & flags can change things). Expect the same with Parental controls. ... the 'relationship', right now, between Edge & the OS is not the same as between Edge-ium (test) Builds & the OS. Ergo, the impact of some OS things on each will be different.
Cheers,
Drew
