Microsoft Edge in Kiosk mode (assigned access) clear memory/cache after restarting the kiosk
Hi, I've already asked a question here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/msedge_other-msedge_win10/microsoft-edge-in-kiosk-mode-assigned-access-clear/86756397-9c00-439e-910a-991c5a78f449?messageId=7acb8ec2-8633-47ab-ab74-819327e652e9 but I was referred to this forum. Maybe someone will know the answer to my question. When Microsoft Edge is set in kiosk mode (assigned access), the browser memory/cache is probably cleaned up after restarting the kiosk. This will lose the settings for the Web Serial API. Can this behavior be turned off? I do not want to set the COM Port every time the kiosk is restarted. Thanks, Pavel
App Mode / Kiosk Mode in Linux
Hello I am trying to figure out how to launch edge in kiosk mode. Using latest version of microsoft-edge dev on Linux. Launching EDGE with the command arguments: "microsoft-edge -app="http://foo.bar" does NOT work and only launches EDGE normally. OS: Ubuntu 22.04 jammy Kernel: 5.17.3-051703-generic DE: Gnome42Edge problem with full screen mode (a.k.a) --kiosk mode
From Edge Version 79.0.309.68 All the way to Version 81.0.396.0 canary, they have this problem. when I use this switch/command on the target of Edge shortcut: "--kiosk" (without quotes) I do get to launch Edge in full screen mode, but there is no way to interact with the toolbar anymore, neither is there any way to close Edge, other than pressing Windows key to show the taskbar. Edge Canary and Dev have this flag: #edge-enable-shy-ui More info here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/finally-here-the-real-full-screen-experience-in-edge-insider/m-p/1011888 and you can see how it behaves in fullscreen mode with that flag. but when kiosk mode is used, that behavior doesn't work anymore.
