In some environments, the Windows OS client can't connect to the Windows Push Notification Service (WNS). For these environments, you can use the Microsoft Edge built-in WNS push client, which can connect successfully. If enabled, Microsoft Edge uses its built-in WNS push client to connect to WNS. If disabled or not configured, Microsoft Edge uses the Windows OS client to connect to the Windows Push Notification Service. This is the default setting.
