Microsoft Edge Download Windows Server 2012 R2

[Kevin]

TheLong-Term Servicing Branch (LTSB) versions of Windows, including Windows Server 2016, don't include Microsoft Edge or many other Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps. These apps and their services are frequently updated with new functionality, and can't be supported on systems running the LTSB operating systems. For customers who require the LTSB for specialized devices, we recommend using Internet Explorer 11.

The "Try Now" link on the web page you've found simply tries to invoke a hyperlink whose protocol is microsoft-edge:. Internet Explorer recognizes this protocol as belonging to a UWP and tries to invoke that app, but only after asking you. What you see in screenshot #3 is the result of that app (Microsoft Edge) not being installed.

I'm looking for the best approach to customize Edge through ADMX/GPO. At first, I wanted to set the homepage/startpage as My Company Site. I have tried to do the same by importing Stable version of Edge ADMX into Central Store and set below policies from "Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge\"

As an alternative, I was able to set homepage successfully through "Computer configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Microsoft Edge\Configure start pages". I believe this works because of OS ADMX. But I can't customize other things from OS ADMX.

The home page open opens if it's a fresh browser/all tabs have been closed. Our users know that they can just click the home button to go to our default SharePoint site if they want. I chose office 365 experience for new tab because we have Office 365 and I just want them to see that instead of a Bing or Google search Engine where they might get distracted.

Internet Explorer isn't going away as long as you keep your Windows version up to date. -us/lifecycle/faq/internet-explorer-microsoft-edge

Edge Chromium has IE mode - you can set websites that don't work well in chrome (our ERP system and some other internal applications dont work well) so we use this. I've removed Chrome and old edge from all machines and now we are only using Edge Chromium. This is working out amazing.

I'm trying to set a default Edge homepage for our users using Group Policy but I don't have the options for Microsoft Edge. Under Computer Configuration, Administrative Templates I only have Windows Components and then Microsoft Edge below that. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

I love being able to create multiple profiles for the various accounts and services I have to use, I am now up to 7. It's great to be able to separate them and just utilize sso to do what I need without constantly having to login to each admin console.

The problem is that every once in a while, my "Connected to Windows" account get associated with a profile and it becomes a royal nuisance. The only way I have seen to fix it is to delete the profile and start over and that hasn't always worked.

On any profile, you can "Sign-Out" or "Sign-Out and Forget" a non-Connected to Windows account. I would like to see the option to "Remove from this Profile" option for the Connected to Windows account.

It would also be great if when setting up a new profile there was a more streamlined process to add a work account that won't let the company manage the pc and is only for this application. Perhaps after adding one work account to Edge, the default should be reversed?

Thanks for the feedback, we've heard this from other users too. Re: the connected to windows accounts, we are working to remove this but since it is cross group collaboration, it may take a while. We eventually would like to just sign you in with the profile account.

Re: Adding an account only to the app, if you select the "This app only" option in the sign in flow where you are asked to manage the device, the account won't be added to the computer and nor will your device get managed.

This is still an issue. When using multiple profiles signed in with Office 365 accounts, it still shows the one connected to windows. This makes it really easy to mess things up, like managing office 365 when your main account has some admin permissions and a secondary account has full permissions. Even when you launch your secondary profile, you get prompted for 'which account' you want to use... and I always seem to click the wrong one. Is there any setting for -not- passing through the 'connected to windows' accounts per profile? If not, what's the best place to up vote feedback?

This is really admin unfriendly, it makes me irrationally upset everytime i try and use my admin profile for admin tasks but Edge decides to use my Windows login details as the default. I get that this is nice for the majority of end users who are interested in syncing browser data with Microsoft but haven't we Administrators suffered enough? (its been a long day)

@josh_bodner Do you have any news on this 2-year old topic? Will this ever be resolved? I, too, use a separate profile to manage M365 and Azure with a different user account and it is really annoying being asked 30 times a day, what account I want to use to sign into Azure. When it really should just use the one account, I already signed in with in the morning.

I'm willing to do the dance, but I think it's what's breaking my ability to use Bookings with my tenant's account (where I am trying to publish my availability). Bookings breaks whenever I try to create a shared Bookings page (I get an 'ugh-oh' error, which is not idiomatic, but that's a different problem...).

The tenant in question is "Connected to Windows" and I am unable to disconnect it.

Hi,

My original setup was an AD hybrid joined device and I had no problems like this.

My new setup is one with an AAD only device linked to my AAD account, and both Edge and Firefox make use of the 'connected to windows' account by kindly logging me into each SSO session with that account.

Edge and Firefox were both used to maintain separation between tenant accounts, the same as @knyhus.

To resolve the issue of having the windows account auto login, the best solution I have found is below. It stops the SSO login and the presentation of credentials for the 'connected to windows account' during the creation of each profile in Edge. I am unsure of the effect on profiles that were configured before this change (I had deleted all mine in anger and swore off ever using Edge again!).

For firefox, in 'about:config', set the 'network.http.windows-sso.enabled' to false.

It disables SSO but does allow for individual container tabs to be logged in with the chosen account, instead of having the SSO login, logout and change chore.

For Edge, with reference to [ -us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#nonremovableprofileenabled] (accessed 2023-03-04), the following registry entry was added:

HKCU:/Software/Microsoft/Policies/Edge

NonRemovableProfileEnabled = DWORD:0x00000000
