-
->Learn more about what features and functionality are supported in each Windows edition at [Compare Windows 10 Editions](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/WindowsForBusiness/Compare).
-
-Microsoft Edge is the new, default web browser for Windows 10, helping you to experience modern web standards, better performance, improved security, and increased reliability. Microsoft Edge also introduces new features like Web Note, Reading View, and Cortana that you can use along with your normal web browsing abilities.
-
-Microsoft Edge lets you stay up-to-date through the Microsoft Store and to manage your enterprise through Group Policy or your mobile device management (MDM) tools.
-
->[!Note]
->For more information about the potential impact of using Microsoft Edge in a large organization, refer to the [Measuring the impact of Microsoft Edge](https://www.microsoft.com/itpro/microsoft-edge/technical-benefits) topic on the Microsoft Edge IT Center.

-| Topic | Description |
-| -----------------------| ----------------------------------- |
-|[Change history for Microsoft Edge](change-history-for-microsoft-edge.md) |Lists new and updated topics in the Microsoft Edge documentation for both Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile. |
-|[Enterprise guidance about using Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer 11](enterprise-guidance-using-microsoft-edge-and-ie11.md) |Guidance about how to use both Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer 11 in your enterprise.|
-| [Microsoft Edge requirements and language support](hardware-and-software-requirements.md) |Microsoft Edge is pre-installed on all Windows 10-capable devices that meet the minimum system requirements and are on the supported language list.|
-| [Available policies for Microsoft Edge](available-policies.md) |Microsoft Edge works with Group Policy and Microsoft Intune to help you manage your organization's computer settings.
Group Policy objects (GPO's) can include registry-based Administrative Template policy settings, security settings, software deployment information, scripts, folder redirection, and preferences. By using Group Policy and Intune, you can set up a policy setting once, and then copy that setting onto many computers. For example, you can set up multiple security settings in a GPO that's linked to a domain, and then apply all of those settings to every computer in the domain. |
-| [Use Enterprise Mode to improve compatibility](emie-to-improve-compatibility.md) |If you have specific web sites and apps that you know have compatibility problems with Microsoft Edge, you can use the Enterprise Mode site list so that the web sites will automatically open using Internet Explorer 11. Additionally, if you know that your intranet sites aren't going to work properly with Microsoft Edge, you can set all intranet sites to automatically open using IE11.
Using Enterprise Mode means that you can continue to use Microsoft Edge as your default browser, while also ensuring that your apps continue working on IE11. |

-
-## Interoperability goals and enterprise guidance
-
-Our primary goal is that your modern websites work in Microsoft Edge. To that end, we've made Microsoft Edge the default browser.
-
-However, if you're running web apps that continue to use:
-
-* ActiveX controls
-
-* x-ua-compatible headers
-
-* <meta> tags
-
-* Enterprise mode or compatibility view to address compatibility issues
-
-* legacy document modes
-
-You'll need to keep running them using IE11. If you don't have IE11 installed anymore, you can download it from the Microsoft Store or from the [Internet Explorer 11 download page](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=290956). Alternatively, you can also use Enterprise Mode with Microsoft Edge to transition only the sites that need these technologies to load in IE11. For info about Enterprise Mode and Edge, see [Use Enterprise Mode to improve compatibility](emie-to-improve-compatibility.md).

# Group Policy and Mobile Device Management (MDM) settings for Microsoft Edge
-> Applies to: Windows 10, Windows 10 Mobile
+> Applies to: Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile
-Microsoft Edge works with Group Policy and Microsoft Intune to help you manage your organization's computer settings. Group Policy objects (GPOs) can include registry-based Administrative Template policy settings, security settings, software deployment information, scripts, folder redirection, and preferences.
+You can customize your organization’s browser settings in Microsoft Edge with Group Policy or Microsoft Intune, or other MDM service. When you do this, you set the policy once and then copy it onto many computers—that is, touch once, configure many. For example, you can set up multiple security settings in a Group Policy Object (GPO) linked to a domain, and then apply those settings to every computer in the domain.
-By using Group Policy and Intune, you can set up a policy setting once, and then copy that setting onto many computers. For example, you can set up multiple security settings in a GPO that is linked to a domain, and then apply all of those settings to every computer in the domain.
+Other policy settings in Microsoft Edge include allowing Adobe Flash content to play automatically, provision a favorites list, set default search engine, and more. You configure a Group Policy setting in the Administrative Templates folders, which are registry-based policy settings that Group Policy enforces. Group Policy stores these settings in a specific registry location, which users cannot change. Also, Group Policy-aware Windows features and applications look for these settings in the registry, and if found the policy setting gets used instead of the regular settings.
-> [!NOTE]
-> For more info about the tools you can use to change your Group Policy objects, see the Internet Explorer 11 topics, [Group Policy and the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=617921), [Group Policy and the Local Group Policy Editor](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=617922), [Group Policy and the Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=617923), and [Group Policy and Windows PowerShell](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=617924).
+**_You can find the Microsoft Edge Group Policy settings in the following location of the Group Policy Editor:_**
+
+ *Computer Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Microsoft Edge\\*
+When you edit a Group Policy setting, you have the following configuration options:
+• Enabled - writes the policy setting to the registry with a value that enables it.
+• Disabled - writes the policy setting to the registry with a value that disables it.
+• Not configured leaves the policy setting undefined. Group Policy does not write the policy setting to the registry and has no impact on computers or users.
+
+Some policy settings have additional options you can configure. For example, if you want to set the default search engine, set the Start page, or configure the Enterprise Mode Site List, you would type the URL.

In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, click **Add**.
If you already have an existing site list, you can import it into the tool. After it's in the tool, the xml updates the list, checking **Open in IE** for each site. For info about importing the site list, see [Import your Enterprise Mode site list to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=618322).
 - -2. Type or paste the URL for the website that’s experiencing compatibility problems, like *<domain>*.com or *<domain>*.com/*<path>* into the **URL** box.
You don’t need to include the `http://` or `https://` designation. The tool will automatically try both versions during validation. - -3. Type any comments about the website into the **Notes about URL** box.
Administrators can only see comments while they’re in this tool. - -4. Click **Open in IE** next to the URL that should automatically open in IE11.
The path within a domain can require a different compatibility mode from the domain itself. For example, the domain might look fine in the default IE11 browser, but the path might have problems and require the use of Enterprise Mode. If you added the domain previously, your original compatibility choice is still selected. However, if the domain is new, Enterprise Mode is automatically selected. - -5. Click **Save** to validate your website and to add it to the site list for your enterprise.
If your site passes validation, it’s added to the global compatibility list. If the site doesn’t pass validation, you’ll get an error message explaining the problem. You’ll then be able to either cancel the site or ignore the validation problem and add it to your list anyway. - -6. On the **File** menu, go to where you want to save the file, and then click **Save to XML**.
You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your Group Policy setting. For more info, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=618952).
-
-### Set up Microsoft Edge to use the Enterprise Mode site list
-
-You must turn on the **Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List** Group Policy setting before Microsoft Edge can use the Enterprise Mode site list. This Group Policy applies to both Microsoft Edge and IE11, letting Microsoft Edge switch to IE11 as needed, based on the Enterprise Mode site list. For more info about IE11 and Enterprise Mode, see [Enterprise Mode for Internet Explorer 11 (IE11)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=618377).
-
-> **Note**
-> If there’s an .xml file in the cache container, IE waits 65 seconds and then checks the local cache for a newer version of the file from the server, based on standard caching rules. If the server file has a different version number than the version in the cache container, the server file is used and stored in the cache container.
If you’re already using a site list, enterprise mode continues to work during the 65 second wait; it just uses your existing site list instead of your new one. - -**To turn on Enterprise Mode using Group Policy** - -1. Open your Group Policy editor and go to the **Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Microsoft Edge\\Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List** policy.
Turning this setting on also requires you to create and store a site list.
 - -2. Click **Enabled**, and then in the **Options** area, type the location to your site list. - -3. Refresh your policy in your organization and then view the affected sites in Microsoft Edge.
The site shows a message in Microsoft Edge, saying that the page needs IE. At the same time, the page opens in IE11; in a new frame if it's not yet running, or in a new tab if it is. - -**To turn on Enterprise Mode using the registry** - -1. **To turn on Enterprise Mode for all users on the PC:** Open a registry editor, like regedit.exe and go to `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\MicrosoftEdge\Main\EnterpriseMode`. - -2. Edit the `SiteList` registry key to point to where you want to keep your Enterprise Mode site list file. For example:
 - - - **HTTP location**: *“SiteList”=”http://localhost:8080/sites.xml”* - - - **Local network**: *"SiteList"="\\\\network\\shares\\sites.xml"* - - - **Local file**: *"SiteList"="file:///c:\\\\Users\\\\<user>\\\\Documents\\\\testList.xml"* - - All of your managed devices must have access to this location if you want them to be able to access and use Enterprise Mode and your site list. - -3. Refresh your policy in your organization and then view the affected sites in Microsoft Edge.
The site shows a message in Microsoft Edge, saying that the page needs IE. At the same time, the page opens in IE11; in a new frame if it's not yet running, or in a new tab if it is.
-
-## Fix your intranet sites
-
-You can add the **Send all intranet traffic over to Internet Explorer** Group Policy setting for Windows 10 so that all of your intranet sites open in IE11. This means that even if your employees are using Microsoft Edge, they will automatically switch to IE11 while viewing the intranet.
-
-> **Note**
-> If you want to use Group Policy to set IE as the default browser for Internet sites, you can find the info here, [Set the default browser using Group Policy]( https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=620714).
-
-**To turn on Sends all intranet traffic over to Internet Explorer using Group Policy**
-
-1. Open your Group Policy editor and go to the `Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Microsoft Edge\Sends all intranet traffic over to Internet Explorer` setting.
-
- 
-
-2. Click **Enabled**.
-
-3. Refresh your policy in your organization and then view the affected sites in Microsoft Edge.
The site shows a message in Microsoft Edge, saying that the page needs IE. At the same time, the page opens in IE11; in a new frame if it's not yet running, or in a new tab if it is.

-## Enterprise guidance
-Microsoft Edge is the default browser experience for Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile. However, if you're running web apps that need ActiveX controls, we recommend that you continue to use Internet Explorer 11 for them. If you don't have IE11 installed anymore, you can download it from the Microsoft Store or from the [Internet Explorer 11 download page](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=290956).
-
-We also recommend that you upgrade to IE11 if you're running any earlier versions of Internet Explorer. IE11 is supported on Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10. So any legacy apps that work with IE11 will continue to work even as you migrate to Windows 10.
-
-If you're having trouble deciding whether Microsoft Edge is good for your organization, you can take a look at this infographic about the potential impact of using Microsoft Edge in an organization.

-### Microsoft Edge
-Microsoft Edge takes you beyond just browsing to actively engaging with the web through features like Web Note, Reading View, and Cortana.
-
-- **Web Note.** Microsoft Edge lets you annotate, highlight, and call things out directly on webpages.
-- **Reading view.** Microsoft Edge lets you enjoy and print online articles in a distraction-free layout that's optimized for your screen size. While in reading view, you can also save webpages or PDF files to your reading list, for later viewing.
-- **Cortana.** Cortana is automatically enabled on Microsoft Edge. Microsoft Edge lets you highlight words for more info and gives you one-click access to things like restaurant reservations and reviews, without leaving the webpage.
-- **Compatibility and security.** Microsoft Edge lets you continue to use IE11 for sites that are on your corporate intranet or that are included on your Enterprise Mode Site List. You must use IE11 to run older, less secure technology, such as ActiveX controls.
-
-### IE11
-IE11 offers enterprises additional security, manageability, performance, backward compatibility, and modern standards support.
-
-- **Backward compatibility.** IE11 supports 9 document modes that include high-fidelity emulations for older versions of IE.
-- **Modern web standards.** IE11 supports modern web technologies like HTML5, CSS3, and WebGL, which help to ensure today's modern websites and apps work just as well as your old, legacy websites and apps.
-- **More secure.** IE11 was designed with security in mind and is more secure than older versions. Using security features like SmartScreen and Enhanced Protected Mode can help IE11 reduce your risk.
-- **Faster.** IE11 is significantly faster than previous versions of Internet Explorer, taking advantage of network optimization and hardware-accelerated text, graphics, and JavaScript rendering.
-- **Easier migration to Windows 10.** IE11 is the only version of IE that runs on Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10. Upgrading to IE11 on Windows 7 can also help your organization support the next generation of software, services, and devices.
-- **Administration.** IE11 can use the Internet Explorer Administration Kit (IEAK) 11 or MSIs for deployment, and includes more than 1,600 Group Policies and preferences for granular control.

+Not only do the other Microsoft Edge group policies enhance the browsing experience, but we also want to mention some of the other and common browsing experiences. For example, printing web content is a common browsing experience. However, if you want to prevent users from printing web content, Microsoft Edge has a group policy that allows you to prevent printing. The same goes for Pop-up Blocker; Microsoft Edge has a group policy that lets you prevent pop-up windows or let users choose to use Pop-up Blocker. You can use any one of the following group policies to continue enhancing the browsing experience for your users.

Because Microsoft Edge is designed like a Universal Windows app, changing the browser to an app, it fundamentally changes the process model so that both the outer manager process and the different content processes all live within app container sandboxes. +Microsoft Edge runs in 64-bit not just by default, but anytime it’s running on a 64-bit operating system. Because Microsoft Edge doesn’t support legacy ActiveX controls or 3rd-party binary extensions, there’s no longer a reason to run 32-bit processes on a 64-bit system. -| | | -|---|---| -| **Windows Hello** | Authenticates the user and the website with asymmetric cryptography. | -| **Microsoft SmartScreen** | Defends against phishing by performing reputation checks on sites visited and blocking any site that is thought to be a phishing site.

Only [properly signed images](https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2015/11/17/microsoft-edge-module-code-integrity/) are allowed to load into Microsoft Edge. Binaries on remote devices (such as UNC or WebDAV) can’t load. | +| **Memory corruption mitigations** | Memory corruption attacks frequently happen to apps written in C or C++ don’t provide safety or buffer overflow protection. When an attacker provides malformed input to a program, the program’s memory becomes corrupt allowing the attacker to take control of the program. Although attackers have adapted and invented new ways to attack, we’ve responded with memory safety defenses, mitigating the most common forms of attack, including and especially [use-after-free (UAF)](http://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/416.html) vulnerabilities. | +| **Memory Garbage Collector (MemGC) mitigation** | MemGC replaces Memory Protector and helps to protect the browser from UAF vulnerabilities. MemGC frees up memory from the programmer and automating it. Only freeing memory when the automation detects no references left pointing to a given block of memory. | +| **Control Flow Guard** | Attackers use memory corruption attacks to gain control of the CPU program counter to jump to any code location they want. Control Flow Guard, a Microsoft Visual Studio technology, compiles checks around code that performs indirect jumps based on a pointer. Those jumps get restricted to function entry points with known addresses only making attacker take-overs must more difficult constraining where an attack jumps. | +| **All web content runs in an app container sandbox** |Microsoft Edge takes the sandbox even farther, running its content processes in containers not just by default, but all of the time. Microsoft Edge doesn’t support 3rd party binary extensions, so there is no reason for it to run outside of the container, making Microsoft Edge more secure. | +| **Extension model and HTML5 support** |Microsoft Edge does not support binary extensions because they can bring code and data into the browser’s processes without any protection. So if anything goes wrong, the entire browser itself can be compromised or go down. We encourage everyone to use our scripted HTML5-based extension model.

Many IE browser vulnerabilities only appear in legacy document modes, so removing support reduced attack surface making the browser more secure.
It also means that it’s not as backward compatible.
