[QUOTE="Local Host, post: 760523"] What you looking for is the Edge Content Process, is the only Edge Process you need to allow for Edge to work (as a browser). Is around "C:\windows\systemapps\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\microsoftedgecp.exe". There are two other processes related to Edge (but you won't need to allow these two), "C:\windows\system32\microsoftedgesh.exe" "C:\windows\systemapps\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\microsoftedge.exe" Also [B]svchost[/B] is unrelated to the browser and you'll need to allow more than [B]svchost[/B] for Windows to work properly, like the [B]backgroundtaskhost[/B] and [B]taskhostw[/B]. As a suggestion would be a good idea to allow the [B]smartscreen[/B] as well. [/QUOTE]
