We have inprivatemode=2 forced on iPads and the devices are running on latest Microsoft Edge version, however if we enable inprivatemode=1 or 0, it works, however if we change to 2, the app is opened it immediately closes or an error saying "Oh,no! Something went wrong. We'll work on that".

It's not impacting the existing device, however only for the devices with edge getting installed, giving issues right now.

    Dear Snehasis Pani,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community!

    I understand that you’re experiencing crashes or errors in Microsoft Edge on iPadOS when attempting to enforce InPrivate Mode (InPrivateMode=2). This can understandably be frustrating, and I appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

    It sounds like you are leveraging a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution, such as Intune, Jamf, or a similar platform, to implement this policy. While I wish I could provide a direct resolution to your issue, this specific scenario is better suited for the Microsoft Learn community.
