It is true that you can install the same extension on Microsoft Edge, they will work fine without any issues and it will still be awesome but they are still native Google Chrome extensions. By a lot… Google Chrome has a lot of extension A lot of software creators create extensions for browsers to give the web application a little more boost and both browsers do work with extension which can be installed by their own store’s:Īs of writing Google Chrome has a lot more extension then Microsoft Edge. Now I know what you’re thinking: It’s a web browser, it needs to open YouTube, Twitter, Pornh… I mean and that’s it but there are a lot of software that depend on a working browser for more functionality.

Is the application compatible with other applications? Microsoft Edge is built-in within Microsoft Windows (which isn’t a big surprise) and Google Chrome can either be deployed by placing it in the Golden Image (for virtual machines) or by deploying it using either Microsoft Endpoint Manager or Intune. Never… NEVER… install 3rd party software on a Domain Controller… NEVER!!! Installing 3rd party (even though it is Google) is not something I would recommend. Usually the GPO is on the Domain Controller server and that is the most important server in your network. So… yes… technically you can secure both applications within your GPO however, I am not a fan of 3rd party software in a production environment. Microsoft Edge however is built-in but you can add ADM or ADMX templates into your GPO to add policies for Google Chrome. You can secure Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome within GPO. Within the GPO you can maintain almost everything that a user or a workstation can or cannot do. In a workplace environment the biggest tool you have to maintain a workstation is the Group Policy Object Management (GPO).
