Microsoft Edge Legacy Installer #10

Closed ThunderboltCommunicationsCorp closed 4 months ago

ThunderboltCommunicationsCorp commented 4 months ago

After three years of failed attempts I finally managed to compile the last version of Edge Legacy into an appx file, but unfortunately upon clicking on install, it simply shows the error shown in the image. The appx is attached as well as the certificate for it if you'd like to attempt this for yourselves. Any solutions would be much appreciated microsoft-edge-legacy-installer-v0-w6fts8ge8r3d1 Edge.zip

Legacy Edge uses some capabilities that are not allowed for normal appx packages. There seems to be a registry key to allow the installation of such packages.

Do you happen to know what that registry key is and where it's located? Also does the registry key already exist, does it need to be added and does it need to be modified? If yes then what?
