Edge chromium deployment
Question
Hello ,
We are planning to upgrade legacy edge to edge chromium through SCCM .
In testing , we found when we run the the installation package of Edge chromium , it forcefully closes the open tabs of Edge legacy .
Whereas , if we run the msi manually , then attached screenshot is the experience .
Is there any commandline or any parameter that we can add in package so that it does not forcefully closes the open tabs of Edge legacy while upgrading to chromium one .
Thanks !!

I don’t know whether the following article shall help or not ….. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/edge-ie-mode#ie-mode-supports-the-following-internet-explorer-functionality
Would it be possible to have an IE icon/shortcut to have only Edge Chromium? The IE icon shall automatically come up when a website or app opened using IE. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/edge-ie-mode#what-is-ie-mode
no, that is altogetther a different topic .
that is “IE 11 mode ” in edge chromium , in which sites ( which are compatible in IE ) that admin has specified in enterprise site mode list will open automatically in edge ( in ie 11 mode) .in the same tab , an IE icon will be there that represents IE 11 mode withing Edge
OK. Cool. I hope you already got the solution

intent is not to keep legacy edge open while upgrading to the chromium one . Though , we want to sustain end user experience and expectation is all the tabs that were open in edge legacy should be opened automatically in the new edge chromium browser so that user can continue from where they left
Hello, Normally, Edge chromium will replace legacy Edge once installed on machines! Its quite difficult to keep open Edge while upgrading.
Lets wait from someone else response.
