Looking for a list of switches for MicrosoftEdgeSetup.exe, I know about the "/silent" and "/install", but it defaults to open a home page after the installer is finished, why would it do that if "/silent" was specified?? Anybody have any suggestions? I have tried the "disable-first-run-ui" and "no-first-run" but the installer switches appear to be different from the chromium style.

Hi @Mitch Gorman

Edge is based on chromium so you can refer to chromium command-line switches.

According to chromium doc: There is no list of all switches, but most of the existing switches can be found at https://peter.sh/examples/?/chromium-switches.html.

That page is dead at the moment, does anyone know of other resources? Does microsoft maintain a list of the switches for their browser?
