48 TopicsURL Shortcuts not working in Edge
Good evening When we used IE11 we use to have shortcuts on all workstations to a specific webpage, this was created by dragging the url from the addressbar to the desktop to create a .website file This functionality doesnt seem to work in Edge even after setting Edge as the default app for .website files. I tried instead to create a standard shortcut / .url file however whenever I click on the shortcut I receive this instead of the desired webpage: Edge is set as the default application for .url files. What is the proper way to create a shortcut to a webpage with the webpage icon in Edge. Thanks.21KViews1like6CommentsEdge Workspaces error V114
I'm having an issue when selecting the workspaces menu it will "Error: Unable to load workspaces" How do I troubleshoot this issue? I need this resolved and functional as MS has enabled by default and it has rolled out to all users. I was expecting to be able to test this feature before enabling by GPO.18KViews0likes37CommentsIssues with Kiosk Mode Refresh
I am having issues with Edge in Kiosk Mode not wanting to refresh the page as we need it to. I am trying to accomplish this with command line arguments, as follows: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --kiosk https://www.contoso.com --kiosk-idle-timeout-minutes=15 This solution is not refreshing the session at all - is there a way to do what I'm trying? I know that there are Extensions that will auto-refresh pages, but they do not currently work in Kiosk mode.17KViews0likes6CommentsHow do I deploy custom (in-house) Chromium Edge extensions to my organization?
We're in the process of moving our organization to the new (Chromium) Edge, and we are developing a custom extension we want to deploy to the users in our organization. How do we go about deploying the extension to our users? The only information I've found talks about publishing the extension in the public Edge Addons Catalog, which requires a partner account and is more fitting for publicizing the extension. Seems a bit much, and we don't want users outside our organization using this extension.Solved12KViews2likes17CommentsEdge Chromium default search engine using Microsoft Edge - Policies
Hi everyone, I have been creating lots of Edge Chromium policies using: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#newtabpagesearchbox I managed to configure everything to the required settings except for the default search engine within the browser, which seems to be overly coplex as I simple wish to use Google instead of Bing: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#default-search-provider-policies I have tried setting it up multiple ways including the settings bellow (Local_Machine, Local_Machine\Recommended, Current_User, and Current_User\Recommended): " Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge] "DefaultSearchProviderEnabled"=dword:00000001 "DefaultSearchProviderName"="Google" "DefaultSearchProviderSearchURL"="{google:baseURL}search?q={searchTerms}&{google:RLZ}{google:originalQueryForSuggestion}{google:assistedQueryStats}{google:searchFieldtrialParameter}{google:searchClient}{google:sourceId}ie={inputEncoding}" "DefaultSearchProviderSuggestURL"="{google:baseURL}complete/search?output=chrome&q={searchTerms}" "DefaultSearchProviderImageURL"="{google:baseURL}searchbyimage/upload" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\Recommended] "DefaultSearchProviderEnabled"=dword:00000001 "DefaultSearchProviderName"="Google" "DefaultSearchProviderSearchURL"="{google:baseURL}search?q={searchTerms}&{google:RLZ}{google:originalQueryForSuggestion}{google:assistedQueryStats}{google:searchFieldtrialParameter}{google:searchClient}{google:sourceId}ie={inputEncoding}" "DefaultSearchProviderSuggestURL"="{google:baseURL}complete/search?output=chrome&q={searchTerms}" "DefaultSearchProviderImageURL"="{google:baseURL}searchbyimage/upload" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge] "DefaultSearchProviderEnabled"=dword:00000001 "DefaultSearchProviderName"="Google" "DefaultSearchProviderSearchURL"="{google:baseURL}search?q={searchTerms}&{google:RLZ}{google:originalQueryForSuggestion}{google:assistedQueryStats}{google:searchFieldtrialParameter}{google:searchClient}{google:sourceId}ie={inputEncoding}" "DefaultSearchProviderSuggestURL"="{google:baseURL}complete/search?output=chrome&q={searchTerms}" "DefaultSearchProviderImageURL"="{google:baseURL}searchbyimage/upload" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\Recommended] "DefaultSearchProviderEnabled"=dword:00000001 "DefaultSearchProviderName"="Google" "DefaultSearchProviderSearchURL"="{google:baseURL}search?q={searchTerms}&{google:RLZ}{google:originalQueryForSuggestion}{google:assistedQueryStats}{google:searchFieldtrialParameter}{google:searchClient}{google:sourceId}ie={inputEncoding}" "DefaultSearchProviderSuggestURL"="{google:baseURL}complete/search?output=chrome&q={searchTerms}" "DefaultSearchProviderImageURL"="{google:baseURL}searchbyimage/upload" " All my other policy's seem to be working just fine except for these which not only don't work as expected but they seem to change absolutely nothing at all (all my policy's are set using the registry).

The IE browser is about to be replaced by EDGE (our company no longer allows the use of IE), there is a very important problem that needs your help urgently. There are some very important websites in my work that need to be added to the [Compatibility View] list of the IE browser to open normally, but I can't find this option in the new EDGE browser, there is no previous IE compatibility view setting option, may I ask How to deal with it? Note: I'm looking for the "Compatibility View Settings" option, not "Internet Explorer Mode Pages". The website needs to be added to Compatibility View for the URL to be accessed normally. please add the two URLs "cccf.com.cn" and "safe.gov.cn", thank you.5.5KViews1like1CommentAutomatic Downloads of Multiple Files - Incorrect Behaviour???
Good afternoon I am running into issues when attempting the following task; I am on a local intranet page that contains multiple links to documents that can be downloaded, I click on the first link and it downloads fine however any subsequent links I receive the below message, this is despite adding the site to the allow list for automatic downloads. Is anyone else experiencing this behaviour or know a solution? Ideally I want to be able to allow multiple downloads from specified sites via group policy. Thanks.5.4KViews0likes2CommentsAlways download PDF files forces open in edge as opposed to other default configured pdf software
This policy and its rule doesn't appear to be working as expected. settings > content > pdfDocuments Always download PDF files - checked Download PDF files to your device. If Microsoft Edge is your default PDF reader, PDF files will open automatically without downloading. On several devices within our estate they have alternative default pdf software (pdf xchange editor) despite all settings and configuration being correct and having tested this on/off it looks like this is the culprit. can anyone else confirm?4.7KViews0likes3CommentsDeploying a PWA and an icon - too much to ask?
