The Microsoft Edge browser also creates a shortcut on the public desktop (C:\Users\Public\Desktop). Set-ItemProperty -Path $RegPath -Name $RegName -Value "$CurrentValues$EdgeRegvalue " # Add the msedge.exe value to existing values in UviProcessExcludes $CurrentValues = Get-ItemProperty -Path $RegPath | Select-Object -ExpandProperty $RegName
# Get current values in UviProcessExcludes I have created a small PowerShell script which will add the msedge.exe value to any existing value data: $RegPath = "HKLM:SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\CtxUvi" This change requires a reboot, so you will have to apply this when installing the browser. What you need to do is to add the msedge.exe to any existing value data. So your UviProcessExcludes value name should look like this: Two options are described in the article, I am using the option for XenApp and XenDesktop 7.9 or later. Citrix has an article on how to disable Citrix API hooks on a per-application basis. Installing the Microsoft Edge browserīefore installing the browser, be aware that you will have to prevent the Citrix API hooks from latching themselves onto the Microsoft Edge process.
With this, we are now ready to install and configure the new Microsoft Edge browser. Microsoft has also created a security baseline GPO which can be found here: Remember to copy the administrative templates to your Central Store. So, how do we get the browser up and running in a Citrix VDA? We’ll start with downloading the enterprise MSI file here:Īnd while there, we’ll also grab the administrative templates which enables us to configure around 200 different settings in the browser.
I am really excited about how Microsoft will handle this in the future. However with that said Microsoft now finds themselves in a situation where they offer a browser based on Chromium, which is an open-source project, which then again means that Microsoft does not control the entire code in the Edge browser. One of the really great features is that you are able to install browser extensions from the Google Chrome Web Store, as Google Chrome has been available for a very long time, there are a lot of available extensions. I have been using this browser for quite some time now and it is awesome. This means that we now have a modern and secure browser that can be managed via Group Policy and is supported by Microsoft in a server operating system. We have a new internet browser! Microsoft Edge based on Chromium, available and supported on Windows 7, 8 and 10 and most importantly in Windows Server 2008 R2, 2012/2012 R2, 20.
