Unable to remove profile
- Jan 28, 2020Reading through all the Edge group policies available, looks like that local AD profile will be created either way but you can use this policy to control whether you can remove it or not

HotCakeX I'm trying to find a way to turn of automatic sign in with local AD and use Azure AD instead.

HotCakeX I set this policy to be NonRemovableProfileEnabled = false, but I cannot find anything that will allow me to remove the local AD profile from the browser.

Do you not have this option?
You can also try going to the User Data directory and delete the folder containing data of that profile
you can find it from here: edge://version/
look for: Profile path

HotCakeX The option to remove was not available for that profile.
I was able to delete the Default directory. I then copied the data from the Profile 1 directory into a new Default directory. I could then delete the Profile 1 directory. I now have only one profile, and it is the correct one.

HotCakeX Thanks, that looks like the best solution for now so will give it a go.
