Behaviour difference observe in IE/Edge browser while opening EXCEL file

[Malik701]

Internet Explorer open Excel macro enable file in EXCEL-2016 and keep the file path as https link. While in Edge Chromium it save in local drive and than open the file to lose link with https. At the end in EXCEL ThisWorkbook.path show local link instead of https link. How to resolve this issue when dealing with Microsoft Edge and Excel to keep the link intact with https.

Is there any setting change required in EXCEL registry or other property to get the path of original file.
