How use .bat file to autmatically open web link in edge

start https://www.mywebpage.com/

Any idea how to open edge links within edge? Like:

Code:

edge://settings/content/backgroundSync

When I use it, it says that "You need an app to open this edge link". Edge is set as a default browser.

TairikuOkami; Unless Edge has some hidden options to start Settings Pages from a command prompt, if we attempt to open it with any address which doesn't start with the http/s protocol, then it throws an error - one exception I seem to have noticed is, starting Edge with the about:blank page which does work.

Anyway, using a powershell script converted to a batch/command using the SendKeys method, the following command seems to work whether Edge is open or needs to be opened to get to the Sync page (-at least it does for me) .

Cmd Box command (or if using your own batch file, create a shortcut to the batch and change its property to run 'minimized' -important)

Code:

Powershell -command "$wshell = New-Object -ComObject wscript.shell;[system.Diagnostics.Process]::Start(\"msedge\",\"about:blank\");Sleep 1;$wshell.SendKeys('^"{l}"');Sleep 1;$wshell.SendKeys('edge://settings/content/backgroundSync');$wshell.SendKeys('"{Enter}"')"

OR:
an already minimized batch file

Code:

:: batch file to open edge with sync settings page opened
:: run it minimized
if not DEFINED IS_MINIMIZED set IS_MINIMIZED=1 && start "" /min "%~dpnx0" %* && exit
Powershell -command "$wshell = New-Object -ComObject wscript.shell;[system.Diagnostics.Process]::Start(\"msedge\",\"about:blank\");Sleep 1;$wshell.SendKeys('^"{l}"');Sleep 1;$wshell.SendKeys('edge://settings/content/backgroundSync');$wshell.SendKeys('"{Enter}"')"
exit
