Policy overview

Key metadata and intent for this policy.

Supported on
Microsoft Edge on Windows 10, Version 1703 or later

Supported OS tags: Windows10

This policy setting lets you decide whether the Address bar drop-down functionality is available in Microsoft Edge. We recommend disabling this setting if you want to minimize network connections from Microsoft Edge to Microsoft services. Note: Disabling this setting turns off the Address bar drop-down functionality. Therefore, because search suggestions are shown in the drop-down, this setting takes precedence over the "Configure search suggestions in Address bar" setting. If you enable or don't configure this setting, employees can see the Address bar drop-down functionality in Microsoft Edge. If you disable this setting, employees won't see the Address bar drop-down functionality in Microsoft Edge. This setting also disables the user-defined setting, "Show search and site suggestions as I type".
