I'm working on some "golden images" to be used by VMs. I'd like to know if there's any published guidance for installing MS Edge on Windows Server 2019 via Scripting? I know I can manually download the .msi and run it but there seems to be no perma-link to the newest MSI nor really any guidance other than the traditional "msiexec /i" command lines.

    Hi @John Owens ,

    Unfortunately, there's no published guidance for installing Microsoft Edge on Windows Server 2019 via scripting. Also, there's no perma-link to the newest MSI because the URL changes with version. The traditional msiexec command lines seems to be the best solution out there. But you won't be worried about whether it is the latest version or not because Microsoft Edge will automatically update itself to a newer version after a user has logged on.
