5 TopicsPolicy needed: "Go to an intranet site for a one-word entry in the Address bar"
For enterprise a policy like the one in IE called "Go to an intranet site for a one-word entry in the Address bar" is very needed. As an enterprise we have a lot of intranet sites and services using one-word hostnames and abreviations like "mc", "servicedesk" etc. that our users are used to just being able to type in their browser. In Edge that will just launch a search on Google or Bing instead. Teaching the users to type http:// every time is nearly impossible and not very user friendly. We use the policy in IE, but it sadly never came to Edge. It would be great if it could be added to the new Edge (Chromium) admx.Solved19KViews9likes53CommentsEdge Chromium doesn't import ALL favorites from IE
Hello, We are making the migration for our users from IE to Edge Chromium and have the GPO in place "Automatically import another browser's data and settings at first run" to import the Favorites from IE into Edge Chromium. We do this since we manage the favorites, and it's easier for us to drag/drop/change extensions in the Favorites folder of our Mandatory Profiles as the favorites will change from time to time. Alongside the internet shortcuts (.url) are .ppt/.pptx and .pdf files we drop in the favorites for ease of access. We also do this because we disable access to File Explorer for these terminal users. We found that only the .url extensions are copying over into Edge. We also noticed that Edge does not import folders recursively, as we have folders within folders at the root that do not transfer over. I have attached an example of our setup. In IE you can see our three folders, within 'folder 1' I have three subfolders, a .PDF, a .PPTX, and an internet shortcut to Google.com. Next we'll import the browser data from IE After the import, only folders with found content in it are transferred over. Recursive folders are not copied and even 'Test Folder 2' and 'Test Folder 3' were not transferred since they were empty of content. We found that no extension outside of .URL would copy over into Edge. For testing, we successfully added the .pptx and .pdf files manually. The PDF opens in Edge and even though the .pptx does not open, Edge still asks us what we would like to do with it. Is there a way we can transfer all of the contents from IE into Edge Chromium currently with a GPO? Or will this be a feature added in a future release? For enterprise that deny access to File Explorer for security reasons this is one of the few options we've relied on in the past with IE. Thank you. We are using Edge Version 87.0.664.75 64-bit1.6KViews0likes2CommentsUnable to get IE mode working through Intune
Hello all, I am trying to get IE mode working with Chromium Edge through Intune. I have enabled the "Configure Internet Explorer integration" policy to be in IE Mode (I have also tested open in IE 11 which also does not work) and enabled and set the "Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List" policy. With the latter policy, I have configured using an XML file in a network location, URL location or just list the URLs out.For a test, I have added google.com. No matter what I do, nothing works.2.4KViews2likes2CommentsMS Edge 79.0.309.65 on Windows 7 - Internet Explorer mode: unsupported
