Feature Request: Per-profile default account selection in Microsoft Edge

Summary

Allow the default account and external-link account-selection behavior to be configured independently for each Microsoft Edge profile.

Description

Microsoft Edge supports multiple profiles, which are commonly used to work with different Microsoft Entra ID / Microsoft 365 tenants and accounts.

Currently, settings such as “Default profile for external links” and related account-selection behavior are shared across Edge profiles. This can cause one profile's account-selection preferences to affect the behavior of other profiles.

We would like these settings to be profile-specific.

For example:

• Profile A → user work account
• Profile B → admin (onmicrosoft.com) account

When a user opens an external link while working in Profile B, Edge should consistently use the account/profile configured for Profile B, without inheriting or being affected by the preferences configured for Profile A.

Expected behavior

Each Edge profile should have its own configurable default account/profile for external links and related account-selection behavior.

Changing the setting in one Edge profile should not change or override the corresponding setting in another profile.

Use case

This is particularly useful for administrators, consultants, developers, and users who regularly work across multiple organizations or Microsoft 365 tenants.

Having profile-specific account selection would make multi-tenant workflows more predictable and reduce the risk of opening links with the wrong organizational account.

Requested functionality

Please make the relevant default-account and external-link account-selection settings profile-scoped rather than globally shared across Edge profiles.
