Windows 10 Kiosk with Edge Chromium
- Jan 15, 2020
The Windows 10 Settings, Accounts, Assigned Access sets Microsoft Edge Legacy as the browser for your kiosk device. When the new version of Microsoft Edge (Chromium based) Stable channel is installed, Microsoft Edge Legacy is hidden and all attempts to launch Microsoft Edge Legacy are redirected to the new version. For more details see Access Microsoft Edge Legacy after installing the new version of Microsoft Edge and Windows updates to support the next version of Microsoft Edge.
The reason you’re seeing the blue screen is because Assigned Access is trying to launch the new version of Microsoft Edge, which is not currently supported in this scenario. To continue using Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode deploy the Microsoft Edge Allow Microsoft Edge Side by Side browser experience policy, set it to Disabled. The Configure for Windows article has instructions on downloading the Microsoft Edge policy template and setting a policies.
Let me know if you have any further issues or question.
ShipUPride We are working on this scenario, but we don't have a date to share at this time. Support for the new Microsoft Edge with single-app Assigned Access requires some Windows updates, so it will take some time before we can land the full scenario. In the meantime, Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode and the Microsoft Kiosk browser app remain fully supported.
ShipUPride FYI, our Microsoft Edge kiosk mode article is now live.
