I was thinking of creating the registry key as we are installing the Edge program as part of a software installation package. &nbsp;The software installer program that we use for deploying allows for batch files and registry keys to be created as part of a custom installation program. &nbsp;<br><br>We can test and see.<br>&nbsp;<br>I wanted to verify if I was on the right track or barking up the wrong tree. &nbsp;Or if another 'key' or option must be triggered to disable that welcome/finish installation wizard.&nbsp; &nbsp;

<div>
Yes, sure, i.e. with SCCM you are able to do a lot in front or after the distribution. <br>A global policy does the same. &nbsp;But maybe easier to test because you do not need to create a package.&nbsp;

<div>
I found some other web sites that confirm what I have found above. &nbsp;https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-microsoft-edges-first-run-page-windows-10<br><br>Microsoft Edge has a new option to stop showing the welcome page using the Local Group Policy Editor and the Registry.<br><br>https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/149885-how-disable-first-run-experience-microsoft-edge-chromium.html<br><br>https://appuals.com/disable-first-run-experience-in-microsoft-edge-chromium/<br><br>Microsoft included the option to stop showing the welcome page by using the Local Group Policy Editor and Registry. <br><br>Thanks guys.<br><br>

<div>
Yes, nevertheless, even if it is a local policy, you can overwrite it by a GPO.&nbsp;

We are preparing to roll out Microsoft Edge to our users and currently it works; but after you open up Edge for the first time there is a window (like a wizard to tab through) and finish the Edge Installation.
This window asks you to login in and sync up Edge with an account.  We would like to see if there is a way to silence that final wizard when opening Edge Chromium for the first time?
Has anyone deployed the Chromium Edge Browser in their work environment and successfully taken this part out?     

How do I remove the finish installation message when installing Microsoft Edge

On top of their share in the software creation market, Microsoft manufactures hardware, including laptops, phones, and attachments.

Installation is the act of making a computer program program ready for execution. Because the process varies programs often come with a specialized program responsible for doing whatever is needed for their installation. Installation may be part of a larger software deployment process. Cross platform installer builders that produce installers for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux include InstallAnywhere, InstallBuilder and Install4J. Installers for Microsoft Windows include Windows Installer, InstallShield, and Wise Installation Studio; free installer-authoring tools include NSIS, IzPack, Clickteam, InnoSetup, InstallSimple and WiX. Mac OS X includes Installer, and also includes a separate software updating application.

Installation

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.
