Edge Proxy
There is no proxy option in edge. Click proxy settings to jump directly to PC system settings.
So I don't think it's useful to set up a GPO for edge
Is there any other way to set proxy in edge

- KanakarisABrass ContributorI have been fighting this all day and it really does not make sense at all, to have ProxySettings in a GPO that does absolutely nothing on the Edge for Enterprise browser!
I see the polixy is being properly applied via edge:\polixy but it is not respected!
In my case, I don't want the browser to use the System settings and I don't want to go around switching shortcuts so it launches with different proxy configuration.
I have multiple PAC files and I wish to configure a different one per groups of users.
There *should* be a GP settings to ovverride this so to set Edge to follow what the ProsySettings instructs it to do. - Edge, just like Chrome and other Chromium based browser, uses system proxy.
so there is proxy settings, it's just in Windows.- Balal AhmadCopper Contributor

- You do need Internet Explorer to be installed in order to use IE mode in Edge.

So is it invalid to set edge proxy through GPO?The only policy for Edge browser that I see that's not depreciated is this:

p.s I suggested this before

to have a separate proxy setting only for Edge, like Firefox. It didn't get much attention, but if you like it, it will help if you send request as feedback from Edge browser
