Difficulty: EasyWeb Browser Security and Pop-Up/Redirect Troubleshooting

An enterprise user reports that notification windows required by an internal web application are not displaying in Microsoft Edge. The technician observes that the browser is suppressing these secondary windows. Which of the following actions should the technician take to resolve the issue while maintaining overall browser security?

  1. Add the internal web application URL to the pop-up blocker allow list.Answer
  2. B
    Clear the browser cache, browsing history, and temporary internet files.
  3. C
    Reset all security zone settings using the Internet Options Control Panel applet.
  4. D
    Reclassify the web application address under social engineering threat prevention.

Answer

Add the internal web application URL to the pop-up blocker allow list.
Adding the specific domain to the browser's pop-up blocker allow list permits necessary secondary windows for that trusted site while continuing to block unwanted pop-ups across all other internet locations.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the cause of the suppressed application windows.
Recognize that Microsoft Edge's pop-up blocker is preventing the internal site from opening secondary notification windows.
Pop-up blockers globally restrict unrequested windows unless explicit exceptions are configured.
2
Configure a targeted exception in browser security settings.
Add the specific URL of the internal application to the pop-up blocker allow list.
This grants window creation permissions exclusively to the trusted internal application without exposing the workstation to intrusive pop-ups across other websites.
