Jan 14, 2020 Re: getting edge chromium over wsus @azeigler We don't use ConfigMgr and are able to start pushing out Edge installer MSI as a standard group policy software deployment but do you know if the installer will make it in to WSUS at some point and if so, any ideas on when seeing as Microsoft are now pushing out to consumer devices via Windows Update. It's not the end of the world at all, I was eventually going to have to package and push Edge Chromium anyway. I just thought I had more time. Word from MS over the summer regarding Edu/Enterprise was that they would make actual Chromium updates available via WSUS but that the base installer wasn't rolling out any time soon. How to Check for Updates in Microsoft Edge Chromium Microsoft has adopted the Chromium open source project in the development of Microsoft Edge on the desktop to create better web compatibility. This new Microsoft Edge runs on the same Chromium web engine as the Google Chrome browser, offering you best in class web compatibility and performance. Edge Chromium is a awesome browser and has 100% replaced Chrome here but any ability to control updates is a disaster right now. We use WSUS for updating our.

Learn about the terminology that Microsoft uses to describe software updates.

Microsoft released the new Edge based on Chromium this year. All apps free download. I will show you how to get it.

Microsoft announced in 2018 that they will rebuild the Edge browser and use the Chromium project (Which is a code subset of the Chrome browser) as code basis. The (first) final version has been released on January 15th 2020. Depending on your environment, you might have to perform some additional steps to get the new browser on your clients.

Unmanaged Windows 10 Home or Pro

Unmanaged versions means that the clients are not Active Directory/Azure Active Directory joined or do not receive their updates via WSUS, SCCM or Windows Update for Business (WUfB).

These clients will receive the new browser with the regular Windows updates. If you want to block the update to the new Edge, you need the Blocker Toolkit to disable automatic delivery of Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based). This download contains admx files to create group policies blocking the update and the cmd file which sets the required registry key manually.
Alternatively you can set the registry key by yourself:
Registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftEdgeUpdate
Key value name:DoNotUpdateToEdgeWithChromium
Key type: REG_DWORD

Edge Chromium Wsus Verteilen

Values:

  • Key is not defined: Distribution is not blocked.
  • 0: Distribution is not blocked.
  • 1: Distribution is blocked.

Managed Windows 10 devices

If you are using domain joined clients or Windows 10 Enterprise/Education, then the new browser will (for the time being) not be updated automatically. If you want your clients to get the new browser, you have to install it yourself.

The installation file for the new browser can be downloaded from the Microsoft Edge for Business website. This site also contains the download link for the admx files to manage the new edge via group policies.

Microsoft Edge based on Chromium

The last step, if you are using WSUS or SCCM to patch your clients, is to enable a product to update the new edge. You will find the new product “Microsoft Edge” within the folder “Windows”:

After synchronizing, you will find updates for Dev, Beta and stable channel:
