Microsoft Edge Chromium and ClickOnce

The new Microsoft Edge Chromium browser doesn’t provide native support for ClickOnce as of version 81.0.416.6.

It will by default NOT work to launch a Smart Office ClickOnce install point link in Edge Chromium.

To enable ClickOnce support in Edge Chromium:

  1. Enter edge://flags link in Edge Chromium browser.
  2. Scroll down to ClickOnce Support setting and select ‘Enable’ from the dropdown list.
  3. Restart the browser.
Note: This setting will be overridden if your organization configures the 
"Allow users to open files using the ClickOnce protocol" policy. – Windows

The Edge Chromium will always prompt the user before launch of a 
ClickOnce link because Chromium doesn't rely on the Windows Security Zones.
