    Hello,
    I juste test in Edge Beta and I have 2 problems.

     

    The first one is that our home page is our Intranet in SharePoint. We force this homepage with Intune policy.

    So when I open Edge and switch to my personal account it switch back automatically to my professional page because it try to open the Intranet page. Not very friendly. 😉

     

    Other problem link to the personal account. We force, still by Intune policy, the search engine to https://www.bing.com/business. But it ask to be connected with a work account so the search in the url bar is not working in personal account.

     

    I think it's not easy, but could we configure this settings separately?

     

    EDIT : I see after, that this settings are not manage in Edge personal. So I try again. And, in the personal profil, the home page was the tab from the previous session and the search engine by default or the one that I use with my personal account.

    Finally the somewhat painful part is especially at the first launch to open the personal profile.

    I believe that this will improve and unify the common environment, which is increasingly complicated to manage.
