Chromium Browser Replaced with Microsoft Edge Browser in Policy Modeling

The Chromium browser that has previously been included as a static component in each Policy Modeling release has been replaced with the Microsoft Edge browser which is functionally equivalent. 

The Edge browser has the advantage that it is evergreen and receives automatic Microsoft updates to stay on the latest and most secure platform.

Tips And Considerations

The actual version of Microsoft Edge used by Policy Modeling is determined by the user's Windows Update service. Like with Chromium, the Edge version is displayed in the Policy Modeling diagnostics so that it can be used to diagnose issues.
