Set IE as default browser.using the Enterprise mode option isn't pretty either since it will still open Edge as well..
Andre posted a GPO preference for this last week: GPO Preferences to set file associations will force common things to load using IE (if you let IE check whether it is the default browser it should ask the user to set it back). Also Google has a Chrome ADMX you can deploy to deny Chrome from asking to be the default browser.

That wont solve it for sites you aren't managing, but for sites you are, just tell it to open in IE11.

ZB _____ Good afternoon all, We are currently setting up our environment for Windows 10. However, due to a number of compatibility issues, we are trying to disable or block Edge altogether. Our current environment needs to be IE11 as we use enterprise mode to resolve site issues. In our bare metal image, we set IE11 as the default browser, however this gets wiped away and reset back to edge when I seal the image. Is there a best practice available that accomplishes setting IE as the default browser in Windows 10, group policy or manually setting within the image? So far, I haven't found a simple solution that would disable Edge and set IE as the default. Any help is greatly appreciated.
