DrDuzi Hello! Are you by chance using the DownloadRestrictions policy (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#downloadrestrictions)? I've seen some other recent feedback regarding the DownloadRestrictions policy and RDP files. Just checking if you are running into the same thing.
