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 a...

kqf_chris and mrbrown38 I followed up with the team and got some clarification. You were correct; it sounds like this policy isn't fully rolled out yet, so stay tuned for that in the near future!

    kqf_chris mahahava Jeffrey_Fronius Good news, I just heard back from the team. "The ForceSync policy is available in Microsoft Edge 86 and onwards. Please refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#forcesync for details."

     

    Hopefully that's helpful!

      REVISING to make troubleshooting easier:

       

      I am testing this with Edge 86 Beta 86.0.622.19 and Dev 87.0.644.4 and it is not working on Windows 10 LTSB/1607. I tested on LTSC and up and it works fine.

       

      I have these policies enabled:

       

      Force synchronization of browser data and do not show the sync consent prompt -- Enabled
      Hide the First-run experience and splash screen -- Enabled

       

      The person icon in the upper right says "Sign in". Click it says "We've detected this account on your device and we need to verify it before you can complete sign in, and set up sync."

       

      So, I go to edge://sync-internals and I see this under Summary:

       

      Transport State: Disabled

      Disable Reasons: Account type not supported

       

      What does that mean? I am testing with an E3 account. Any help for LTSB?

        In my environment WS2019+Citrix VDA 2009 this is working as expected. Thank you very much so far and I'm looking when I will see it in production version!
