GPO requested: Suppress the "We've signed you in" prompt on first use

Currently when Edge is launched for the first time there is a pop-up that says "We've signed you in". I would like to be able to suppress this. In an Enterprise the users don't need to be told they are signed in as it will be forced/not optional.

 

Thanks!

    Has anyone manage to fix this yet?

     

    I've got the following set but still get prompted at first run.

    Any progress on this?

     

    We are also wanting to inpliment syncronisation on premise but that window is very counter-intuative, we dont want to show that screen and whats even worse is that the information is wrong as it says syncronization is not avaiable, where it in fact is what we are indeed enableing for our users, 

  • Following this thread.  I too would love to suppress this message.  We're starting to test the on-premise sync.

  • kqf_chris Good news: it sounds like you can easily disable that. If you enable the "hide FRE" policy along with either disabling sync or forcing sync, this popup will also be disabled. Hopefully that helps!

      I have Hide FRE set already with "Configure whether a user always has a default profile automatically signed in..." (not force sync because it doesn't exist yet). This window is the only one that pops up. Can you have someone take a look at this behavior? Thanks for your help!

      I have the following set, but still get the "We've signed you in" prompt on first use:

      • Disable synchronization of data using Microsoft sync services: Disabled
      • Configure whether a user always has a default profile automatically signed in with their work or school account: Enabled
      • Hide the First-run experience and splash screen: Enabled
      • Browser sign-in settings: Enabled, Force users to sign-in to use the browser

      Also looking for a way to suppress this.

        • Hide the First-run experience and splash screen: Enabled,
        • Above that Disable synchronization of data using Microsoft sync services: Make it Enabled
        • This is required foe Windows 8 Systems, Since that functionality may not be there.
        • This setting is not required for windows 10, Hide the First-run experience and splash screen is enough.
  • kqf_chris Thanks for reaching out; that's a great point. I'll ask our Enterprise team and let you know if they have any insights to share.
