    How can I stop Edge from prompting me to allow an app to open?


    I'm running Win 10 Pro, version 1909. MS Edge version 83.0.478.64.
    Using SQl Server Reporting Services.
    When I select to edit a report in Report Builder I get a popup - This site is trying to open Microsoft Report Builder. http://[servername] wants to open this application.
    I would really like to be able to be able to bypass this.
    I've tried the registry hack - adding the dword ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge (value of 1)
    and I've tried enabling 'Enable remembering protocol launch prompting preferences' from 'edge://flags'.
    neither of those has worked.
    Also, after I allow Report Builder to open, I also have another dialog box that says We're opening your report in Report Builder...did you run into issues? You'll need Report Builder installed on your computer.
    I have it installed and it works.
    I would really like to eliminate the need for all the added mouse clicks.

    :)

    How can I keep IE from prompting me to try Edge?

    IE keeps prompting me to try Edge. I don't want to use Edge. It doesn't work on internal sites, it doesn't even work for some Microsoft sites. I want it to stop asking me all of the time to use it. How can I make this happen? (And yes, IE is my default browser
    - had to force reg keys with GPP because MSFT kept changing it back.)

    How can I stop Edge from prompting me to allow an app to open?

    Microsoft Edge has stopped woorking

    Hello,

    There may be a number of reasons why suddenly Edge would stop working. The first troubleshooting step that we can try is to run the troubleshooter for Windows apps. Check out
    this link for more information and download link for the troubleshooter.

    If the above step won't work, we also suggest resetting Edge. For this, follow the steps below:

    • Close Microsoft Edge browser.
    • On the Cortana search bar, type Default App settings.
    • Click on Microsoft Edge (the list may not include Edge if your operating system is not on Creators Update.)
    • Under Microsoft Edge, click Advanced options.
    • Click the Reset button and confirm.
    • Restart your PC.
    Note: Your PC must be updated to the latest version of Windows for this troubleshooter.

    Let us know how it goes.
