    Disable internet browsing for a local user?


    I'm administering a bunch of computers we loan to users, so using Microsoft accounts isn't an option. In this particular case i have two local users on a Win10 pro machine, one admin and another as a normal user. I need to disable Edge for the normal user.

    At first i read on about the parental controls, but those work only with MS accounts, so that's a no go. Then i read on about AppLocker, which would have been great for this purpose, but as i'm running 10 Pro, this isn't an option either.

    Any ideas are more than welcome..

    :)

    Disabling inPrivate in Edge through group policy

    Is there a way to disable InPrivate option in Edge through group policy, like you can for Internet explorer (Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Window Components > Internet Explorer > Privacy > Turn off InPrivate
    Browsing)?

  3. Windows Mobile 5.0, Disable Internet Browsing?

    Hello. There is no way to uninstall PIE as it is part of the OS ROM. I suppose you could put in bogus proxy server info into IE so that it would not connect to any webpages but a user could easily overcome that unless the device was under administrative
    control:

    You could try Program Killer download | SourceForge.net
    Disable access to task manager, to prevent it from being terminated.

    But disabling Edge, does not disable internet, a portable browser can be used.

    Thanks. Portable browser won't be a problem due to nature of our users.

    The program killer, however, will prevent the use for the local admin user as well.
