How do you manage Microsoft Edge browser updates on RDS servers used for web applications?
Do we need to allow continuous internet access for Edge updates and WebDriver checks, or do you manage updates in a controlled/whitelisted manner?  What are the best practices to follow ?

@AmilaK I usually just allow the same sites as the WebDriver used by DAMP in AutoIt. Since PS Automate is based on the same algorithm, the sites are as follows
 

Chrome:
https://googlechromelabs.github.io/chrome-for-testing/latest-versions-per-milestone-with-downloads.json - Check Version
https://storage.googleapis.com/chrome-for-testing-public/[VERSION]/win64/chromedriver-win64.zip - Download

Firefox:
https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/latest - Check Version
https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/download/v[VERSAO]/geckodriver-[VERSION]-win64.zip - Download
 

Edge:

https://msedgewebdriverstorage.blob.core.windows.net/edgewebdriver/LATEST_RELEASE_[VERSION]_WINDOWS - Check Version
https://msedgedriver.microsoft.com/[VERSION/edgedriver_win64.zip - Download
 

Opera:

https://github.com/operasoftware/operachromiumdriver/releases/latest - Check Version
https://github.com/operasoftware/operachromiumdriver/releases/download/v.[VERSION]/operadriver_[win64/win32].zip - Download


Danp github for future references:

GitHub - Danp2/au3WebDriver: Web Driver UDF for AutoIt - you can find the same urls insed wd_core.au3 file just search for “_WD_SupportedBrowsers”
