Answer 1

Hi, I'm Elise, and I'd be happy to help with your issue.

It is likely a Windows update has introduced this error, can you check if there are any further pending updates available to download/install which might resolve the issue?

Kind Regards,

Elise

I don't use edge, but the same thing is happening in Windows 10 Sandbox when you open Edge more than once.

This is how I ended up here :)

Answer 4

Dear Elise,

Thank you for your response, I had updated 5 PCs (Win10/Win11) to the latest Window updates.

only 1/5 of PCs (Win10) is working :D

Do you still have any ideas?

FYI: I had update the edge to latest version too.

Appreciated.

Same issue here in the WIndows Sandbox. After the first start of the browser (microsoft edge) that works, the next one is not working with the error: STATUS_BAD_IMPERSONATION_LEVEL

Any ideas about resolve the issue?

Thank you.
