Windows Integrated Authentication - Dialog box prompt for credentials is the wrong one!

One of the reasons why I decided to move my company to the new Edge instead of Chrome is how Chrome handles WIA for non-domain computers.    The issue here is that in all versions prior to 80.0.331...

    Good news Keith Davis, this is due to "Allow Windows Credentials for HTTP Authentication Challenges" and if you disable it in Edge settings, it will revert to the previous login dialog.

    So go to: edge://flags/#edge-windows-credentials-for-http-auth, and set it to Disabled.

Has anyone seen anything further on the ability to control this setting? We are eager to deploy but not without controlling the login experience for some legacy apps we have. Is there a registry entry even that can force this behavior?

      Windows Integrated Authentication - Dialog box prompt for credentials

      we are planning to migrate to edge and one of the challenge in our POC, we are not able to login into intranet sites without Dialog box prompt for credentials. we installed edge version is 81.0416.72. We don't have any issues with IE 11 and we are able to login without any dialog box prompt for credentials.

      Do we have to change in server side or browser setting to work? please let me know if you have any resolution for this issue.

      That is great! The only problem with flags is that (as far as i know) it's not possible to control in any other way then configure them on the local computer. I Would love to see a GPO for this.
