How to Install Microsoft Edge on Chromebook

Are you looking for ways to install Microsoft Edge on your Chromebook? With the increasing popularity of Microsoft Edge, many users want to know how they can access this popular web browser on their Chromebooks. In this article, we will guide you through the process of installing Microsoft Edge on your Chromebook.

Before we begin, note that some administrators might have hidden the options to configure camera and microphone permissions on the enrolled Chromebook device. If you are having trouble finding these settings, you can try configuring Browser Redirection on the client system using the Settings window of Horizon Client. For more information on how to do this, see the topics about configuring Browser Redirection in the Configuring Remote Desktop Features in Horizon document.

To install Microsoft Edge on your Chromebook, you will need to follow a few simple steps:

1. Ensure that the VMware Horizon Browser Redirection extension is installed in the browser.

2. Install the Chrome browser or Microsoft Edge (Chromium) browser on your Chromebook.

3. Configure the VMware Browser Redirection agent-side group policy settings on the Active Directory server.

To support the Browser Redirection feature, you will also need to install Horizon Agent 7.10 or later on the virtual desktop or RDS host for published desktops.

In addition to these requirements, there are some system requirements that your remote desktop must meet in order to support Browser Redirection. The viewport is the portion of the browser window that contains the content of the web page. With Browser Redirection, when an end user opens a website in a Chrome or Microsoft Edge (Chromium) browser in a remote desktop, the web page is rendered on the client system instead of the agent system, and it is displayed as an overlay on the remote browser's viewport.

By following these simple steps, you should be able to install Microsoft Edge on your Chromebook and start enjoying all its features.
