Microsoft Edge Kiosk Mode New Tab/New Window Shortcuts
Hello!
We have devices where we are using Edge with Kiosk mode. We've discovered that the CTRL+N and CTRL+T shortcuts for new tab and new window work from within Kiosk mode.
We ideally only want to display a one window kiosk session for the browser and do not want to allow a full Edge browser access. Is there some way we can disallow these shortcuts? It also seems like a bug to me, as that seems to defeat the purpose of kiosk mode.

Jeffrey_Fronius Hello! Looks like this is on our roadmap for later this year!
Please see our documentation for more information: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-configure-kiosk-mode#roadmap . Thanks!

- Good day, checking back on this. Is this enhancement expected for Edge 88 or 89 coming soon? This would help greatly with one of my company's use cases for Edge!
Raj_GSNot sure if you had a chance to review the doc links that Kelly provided. Similar to the Legacy Edge's kiosk offering, Windows Assigned Access feature now supports the new Edge in single app kiosk mode (in Insider builds for a few weeks now) - via Settings UI, Intune, Powershell scripting, etc. When you configure Edge kiosk using Assigned Access's single app mode, you'll notice that we lockdown Ctrl+N. Ctrl+T is not blocked though. In case you had a chance to try this out, let us know what you think!
