Information
This policy controls whether the AutoFill feature of Microsoft Edge is enabled for the auto-complete feature for addresses and other information in web forms.
The recommended state for this setting is: Disabled.
Rationale:
Allowing autofill data to be saved in Microsoft Edge could potentially allow storage of sensitive data such as personally identifiable information (PII). Considering that storage of sensitive data should be handled with care disabling this setting is recommended.
Impact:
Users will be unable to store autofill address information in Microsoft Edge and they will also not be prompted to use such information on webforms. Disabling this setting also stops any past activity of autofill.
Solution
To establish the recommended configuration via GP, set the following UI path to Disabled
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge\Enable AutoFill for addresses
Note: This Group Policy path may not exist by default. It is provided by the Group Policy template MSEdge.admx/adml that can be downloaded from Microsoft here.
Default Value:
Enabled - Users can control AutoFill for addresses in the user interface.
