We have following Intune configuration:

 

Why does the splash screen still appear?

    I can only check edge://policy once I’ve clicked through the splash screen. When I then check edge://policy, I can see that the policy is being applied.
    Why does the splash screen still appear? Is there something wrong with our Intune configuration?

    Hi staeheli​,

    Have you verified on an affected device via edge://policy that the policy is actually present at first launch? We’ve seen cases where the onboarding prompt was related to Edge sign-in rather than the First Run Experience itself.
