Example of well-formed local network domain name in relevant ActiveDirectory policies governing Edge
lloydmalvern Hi again!
For AutoOpenFileTypes, you can use the AutoOpenAllowedForURLs in conjunction. Here is the documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#autoopenallowedforurls which also contains a link to the URL pattern documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/DeployEdge/edge-learnmmore-url-list-filter%20format
If you are working on deploying MS Edge, have you heard of our FastTrack team (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/fasttrack/microsoft-365/microsoft-edge)? They can help with configuring MS Edge for your organization and provide guidance with these policies.
Hopefully this will help with some of your questions.

Thanks very much for the links to the current policies. I can't get it to work. Edge is still blocking setup.exe
To confirm the domain I open Edge and type the following into the address bar
https://MYDEVMACHINENAME/ClickOnce/TestApp/publish.htm
The ClickOnce publish.htm for TestApp is successfully opened in the browser.
There is a registry entry to enable ClickOnce:
Policies->Microsoft->Edge
ClickOnceEnabled.............REG_DWORD........................0x00000001 (1)
In the registry the domain has been exempted from file type warnings:
Policies->Microsoft->Edge->ExemptDomainFileTypePairsFromFileTypeDownloadWarnings
1.............REG_MULTI-SZ {"file_extension":"exe","domains":["https://MYDEVMACHINENAME"]}
ClickOnceEnabled.............REG_DWORD........................0x00000001 (1)
exe is specified in AutoOpenFileTypes key in the registry:
Policies->Microsoft->Edge->AutoOpenFileTypes
1.......REG_SZ................exe
And in AutoOpenAllowedForURLs in the registry I've added the path to the IIS web-application above
Policies->Microsoft->Edge->AutoOpenAllowedForURLs
1.......REG_SZ................https://MYDEVMACHINENAME/ClickOnce
NOTE: The case-sensitivity matches.
Do I have to specify the full path?
https://MYDEVMACHINENAME/ClickOnce/TestApp
When I do that, there is no change to the behavior. Setup.exe is still blocked.
