We get a popup to set our cookie preferences. We login to the server with a domain account (regular or DA does not matter for end result) and browse to the same site we used as a local test user. We check the server with 'gpresult /h /test.html' and RSOP.msc if any policies are loaded and this is not the case. We make the server member of AD and it is in the Test OU.

In AD we create a new Test OU with no policies and disable inheritance. Setup proxy in the browser and see if it remembers cookies when we browse to a site.Ĭookies are stored and we do not get an annoying popup for cookie preferences when we visit a site.

We freshly installed the server (2019 or 2022) from VLSC iso.Ĭreate a local user and immediately login as that user. Once I switched the useragent and refreshed Google Docs, the unsupported message was no longer shown.We have a problem that Chromium based browsers do not remember cookies on a domain joined server.Ĭan any one point us in the right direction? To prove this, I installed the User-Agent Switcher for Chrome extension in Microsoft Edge and configured the browser to use the useragent of Chrome 74, which is shown below.

When the browser connects to a website, the browser's useragent string is also sent to the web site so that the site can offer customizations based on the browser.įor example, the useragent string for the new Microsoft Edge is: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0 Win64 圆4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/.0 Safari/537.36 Edg/75.0.131.0Įven though the new Microsoft Edge is compatible with Google docs because it shares the same HTML engine as Google Chrome, since its useragent is not whitelisted, Google Docs will state it is unsupported. This message is being shown because Google whitelists browsers based on their useragent strings, and for any that are not whitelisted, will display the above unsupported message.Ī browser useragent is a unique string associated with a browser and used to identify it. Google Docs stating Microsoft Edge is unsupported
