We are currently trying to setup an test whit Windows 10 (Tablet Mode) and Windows Modern in MobiControl but are having different issues, the goal is to have a more locked down user tablet whit Web applications.

After enrollment we set an profile whit "Configurations" and a simple edit:

We choose "Allowed Applications", in this case we are testing whit MS Edge on a Windows 10 Pro (21H1) device:

  • Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe!MicrosoftEdge

As for "Start Menu" we just set an URL, when log in om the KIOSK user just created we get the shortcuts but Edge for example does not show any picture og icon.

If we add "Calculator", this shows up whit icon and shortcut also works, pressing the Edge shortcut then nothing happens, seems that shortcut does not find Edge as anly application on the information in "Pre-defined Applications".

Looking at the AUMID both in MobiControl and on the device is seems to correct, also tried install Edge again form MS Store but no luck.

Anyone have an idea on why shortcut does not show up or this type of configuration?

MobiControl Version - 15.4.1.4828

Well i encountered that problem many times with the edge browser.

I set up the edge browser as an application and it showed up in the kiosk screen. But
i couldn't start the app. I clicked so many times on the icon but nothing showed up.
You can try and check if the browser shows up as an application without the URL config.

Sometimes there were times where it was working perfectly fine but i did no changes
to the profile or application. Because it was working not really reliable i switched to
the classic lock-down mode.

The good thing about the classic lock down is that you can put there any URLs you want.
The bad thing is that you can place modern applications (appx) to your lock down.

I couldn't find a clue why it was not working sometimes. There were sometimes applications
who worked pretty good. But not always and that was a reason for me to switch to the
classic lock down.
