How the new Edge will handle file:// URI ?
file: links seems to be ignored in this version of Edge (like they are in Chrome). In the previous version of Edge however (and all IE versions), clicking on a file: link opens the original document....

Also, keep an eye on the Edge Policies page when it is updated for Edge 94: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies

Can you be more specific? I see nothing useful for helping my Intranet Wiki support file:// links in the Edge Policies, and Sharepoint is really not a solution. Since the context menu Open in IE doesn't seem to be working for me, basically I am stuck using IE mode for Intranet (I need javacsript: links) and Wiki. (PS It would really be nice if Edge added protocol for opening a URL in Edge private mode like the microsoft-edge: protocol.)
