Does the new Edge browser work with Kiosk mode?

I set up loaner devices to just use the browser.  I recently updated them to Windows10-2004 and installed the new Edge browser. I just get a blank blue screen when I try to sign in with kiosk mode after setting it up to open with Edge (the Icon that I am able to select still looks like the old one).  Does anyone know if I need to go back to the old OS or the old Edge?

    Hi Sue, 

    I'm not able to provide a date for kiosk mode features moving to the Stable version, as we're continuing to test and refine it. Some kiosk mode privacy features moved to Stable with the latest update, 87.0.664.41, and we'll continue to add features in Stable over time. Stay tuned!

    Thanks, 

    -Alex

    Hi Alex,

    Thanks for the info. I have updated Edge to 87.0.664.41 but when I set up kiosk in settings and then sign in with assigned access, the screen is still just blue. No URL is displayed. What do I need to do?

    Thanks,

    Sue

    Hi Sue, 

    Sorry for any confusion here - privacy features were added to Stable with the latest update, but the assigned access is not available yet.

    How do you select Dev or Beta I cannot.

    Hi EricSLiu, 

    Just to confirm, are you unable to select Dev or Beta as a kiosk app using the wizard?

    If you're not seeing it there, can you confirm you've installed the Dev or Beta channels and installed the latest Windows 10 Insider Preview, version 20215 or higher? To install the Windows 10 Insider Preview, follow the instructions in Getting started with Windows 10 Insider Preview Builds.

    Let me know if you have any additional questions!

    -Alex
