new Edge Browser and file:// Links.
Maybe waiting, will resolve this problem.
I've some news from Microsoft during a ticket.
Microsoft is working on this issue.
Last news I have got from the product group is that this scenario is committed for the current quarter.
They will be able to confirm dates closer to mid-Feb.
The last update we got is:
>Regarding timelines, we're hopeful to have something figured out this quarter,
which would likely become available in Edge 90/Edge 91 release
( Microsoft Edge release schedule | Microsoft Docs<https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/DeployEdge/microsoft-edge-release-schedule>).
