MicrosoftWindows Defender Application Guard Standalone mode
I wish to know more detail about this feature. Say will the page in this mode be able to save downloads to folder. If so to which folder(s). And what kind of browser assets (like cookies, or favorites) will it have access to (read/write). Will it block Edge plugins? Or does it also offer all the privacy protection in InPrivate mode?
Such information is useful to evaluate how useful this feature would be to Edge users.
MicrosoftWhile it is not possible currently to download files from the isolated Application Guard container to the host PC, you do have the option of using "Print as PDF" or "Print as XPS" and save those files to the host PC.
In the current build, your Edge profile and settings that include your cookies, favorites, and browsing history only persist for the life of the container. We are working on enabling Edge profiles and data in Application Guard persist between reboots and user log on sessions. We'll announce that functionality once its available in the future.
The current version of Edge in Application Guard will not support extensions but we are closely monitoring user feedback on this topic.
Finally, you can use InPrivate mode today in Application Guard. Once you have opened Edge in Application Guard, you will see the menu option to start InPrivate and that will stay in isolation.
Please use feedback hub to share feature suggestions or report any issues. Your feedback or votes on existing feedback will immensely help us to further improve the offering.
