Microsoft releases a new update build (version 101.0.1210.10) of its Chromium-powered Edge browser. The build is now rolling out to the Edge Insiders in the Beta Channel. The latest Microsoft Edge Beta Build 101.0.1210.10 adds a couple of feature improvements and quite a few policy updates. For a detailed list of changes in this build, continue reading.
Feature updates
- Ability to set default profile. The EdgeDefaultProfileEnabled policy will let you set a default profile to be used when opening the browser rather than the last profile used. This policy will not be applicable if the --profile-directory parameter has been specified.
- Client Certificate Switcher. This feature will offer a way for users to clear the remembered certificate and resurface the certificate picker when visiting a site requiring http certificate authentication. This can be done without manually quitting Microsoft Edge.
- Launch Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) from Favorites Bar. Improvements to the PWA launch experience will begin to show up starting with an Apps icon that can be added to the toolbar.
- Manage the "Allow extensions from other stores" setting. Use the ControlDefaultStateOfAllowExtensionFromOtherStoresSettingEnabled policy to control the default state of the "Allow extensions from other stores" setting.
