Not usable with TS - Not responding

[FBartsch]

Hey guys,

we were happy to hear that there will come a "modern" windows browser and tried it.

But we are not able to install/use it without issues.

We tried every downloadable version and installed it in Windows Server 2016 and 2019 for tests.

Everytime we do it, after installation the mouse cursor is flickering and whatever he is trying, he cant finish it.

While that the event log is spamming multiple "event 1000" for msedge.exe every second.

Same issue occur when we try to run it as a terminal user.

Tried to run as admin, without web protection, without virus scanner...everytime its the same behaviour.

Thanks.

Hi @FBartsch 

are you using the Windows server edition of Microsoft Edge Dev channel?

Hey, yes we did.

Clicked on the arrow and downloaded for "Windows Server (2016 and above)".

Same problem here. But only on servers 2016/2019 in TS Mode(Citrix or RDS). 

This solution solved my problems:

1. Open Registry Editor

2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\CtxHook

3. Create a REG_SZ string "ExcludedImageNames"

4. Enter the value "msedge.exe,nacl64.exe"

The new Edge starts now without any issues in Citrix and RDS Session...!

This works also with GroupPolicyPreferences.

Awesome. Works like a charm.

Uninstalled it, added the key and installed again.

Hope they will implement a hotfix before they will release it.
Are there already GPO's for the browser?

Thanks again for your hint.
