VR 360, Local HTML file not working in Edge

Hi everyone

Has anyone created a VR 360 in Animate and managed to open the file in Microsoft Edge?

It will open in Firefox after a 'config origin policy amendment' and also Chrome after adding the '--allow-file-access-from-files' to the exe file path, but I just cant figure out how to get them to work in Edge.

When attempting to do so I'm just presented with a blank white screen.

Our organisation only uses Edge so any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks in advance

Hi.

If you have to apply special settings for each browser and you cannot rely on Internet, maybe you should consider turning your output into a desktop application using something like Electron or Tauri.

Thanks for your response JC, but unfortuntely running executables isnt an option in our work place either.

you should be testing from within animate or upload to a web server and test from there.

Hi kglad,

yes it works when testing from within Animate, but I need the 360 to work offline (in Microsoft Edge) and so dont have the option of uploading it to a web server unfortunately.

Im experiencing the same issue with this. Its fine when creating and testing the VR 360 in Adobe Animate, but when complete I publish the contents and try running the new HTML file (outside of Animate) it just doesnt load in Microsoft Edge.

So it seems that CORS is in place as a security measure to prevent items like this from loading in browers, but is there a setting in the Edge browser that I can amend to allow my 360s to run (offline and independant of Animate)?

what do you mean by "the same issue with this"?

there's been one issue and that is improper testing. ie, you don't have a browser problem and you don't have a problem with your animate production files.

if you want to weaken a browser's security settings, google how to do that. but you've been alerted: this is not wise and is totally unnecessary. i believe you misunderstand several things.
