Cannot launch Edge from a service

[jeffsaremi]

I can start Karma with Edge on the command line when I do it manually. However if I have a Windows Service running under say "Network Service" it does not look it can find it.

Console output:

INFO [launcher]: Starting browser Edge
WARN [launcher]: Edge have not captured in 120000 ms, killing.
Killing Edge process failed. Error: Command failed: taskkill /t /f /im MicrosoftEdge.exe
ERROR: The process "MicrosoftEdge.exe" not found.

INFO [launcher]: Trying to start Edge again (1/2).
WARN [launcher]: Edge have not captured in 120000 ms, killing.

Is this on the same machine? If not, note that Edge is not supported on Windows Server.

These are both the same machines. The OS is Windows 10 Pro

Using PsTools from SysInternals I managed to run the "Karma start..." under the Network Service in a cmd window and I got this:

I see the same behavior trying to run via a teamcity agent on a windows 10 Pro OS.

I can run my test script manually but when the agent attempts to start Edge it gets the same error message "ERROR: The process "MicrosoftEdge.exe" not found."

I see the same behavior on a Windows 10 Pro running GoCD agent as a service. Its unable to launch edge.

Do you have new Edge (Chromium) or legacy Edge (ChakraCore) installed?

I am able to run FireFox and Chrome using the same config. But when I tried to add Edge, it gives me this errror

Any leads to solve this issue?

This might have something to do with this issue?
