Support for MSEdge Chromium Apps #260

Open crispyricepc opened 4 years ago

crispyricepc commented 4 years ago

Chrome apps can be added using the custom shortcut manager. It would be nice to extend this functionality to MSEdge as well, since they work almost identically. Currently, we can't select the Edge executable because it must be called chrome.exe

Second this...

All that needs to change is the file browser specification for "chrome.exe." The extensions directory can be changed, but not the application binary name.

Same here. This is so close to being able to support Edge PWA but it is utterly obstinate about reverting to chrome.exe and also will not scan Edge PWA even though they're in a similar extension directory. Can we get another "Edge Apps" tab that does the same thing as Chrome, but for msedge.exe?

FYI, it is possible to simply put the full path to msedge.exe in the browse dialog and override the filter on that dialog. However, even after doing this and changing the extension path, it still shows Chrome's apps instead of re-scanning the modified Extension directory.

Exiting and re-entering the dialog does not refresh the apps from the Extension directory but does appear to maintain the path settings at least visually. Restarting the app reverts back to chrome.exe. So this seems well and fully stuck on Chrome right now.
