"Force" it via GPO in Edge and the user can override it, rather idiotically. It even says this in the "policy" description!

We force it for everyone via gpo, that still works but won't help you.

Same with the search provider, not just in Edge but IE too.

We do IE home pages org wide without issue, been years since I touched that policy. Have not tried it with Edge yet though, that is unsupported here. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of James Rankin Sent: Tuesday, August 2, 2016 3:41 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] A petition to Microsoft asking them to stop removing management features Susan, I'm very much behind that, I will get as many people as I can to sign up. While we're on, I'd like them to bring back the ability to manage IE homepages on multiple machines properly, a way to set file type associations on a per-user basis, and to make mandatory profiles work again. And cease and desist with their "roaming is dead" mantra! -----Original Message----- From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Susan Bradley Sent: 02 August 2016 18:24 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [NTSysADM] A petition to Microsoft asking them to stop removing management features I'm starting a tilting at windmill/petition asking Microsoft to stop removing management features https://www.change.org/p/microsoft-microsoft-end-the-bait-and-switch-stop-removing-features-in-branch-releases?recruiter=27869210&utm_source=share_for_starters&utm_medium=copyLink /Feedback hub item: /feedback-hub:?contextid=336&feedbackid=247d835c-6384-4a2a-88ee-1fcacdb1ff19&form=1&src=2// // -- =================== Guess where I was on July 20th? http://forms.windowsitpro.com/Windows10-Enterprise-Main Guess where I will be October 10-13?
