MicrosoftIntroducing Sleeping Tabs Experiment: Improving Memory Usage in Microsoft Edge
just installed Edge stable version 88.0.705.50
it's not enabled for me but the flag is there to activate it manually
edge://flags/#edge-sleeping-tabs
HotCakeX I also installed Edge stable version 88.0.705.50. I used Group Policies to Enable Sleeping Tabs and a 15 minute inactivity rule. I verified it is in the Edge://Policy, but it will NOT trigger unless I enable it via Edge://Flags.
Am I missing something? Users should not have to enable it via Flags if I am managing it via GPOs.
Hello John, have checked this at my company some minutes ago (with the 5 minutes sleeping rule) and it worked perfecly.
Maybe it is, how HotCakeX wrote.
Rene_Gross When you say "and it worked perfecly.", do you mean without enabling it via FLAGS? Mine works if I enable it via FLAGS. My issue is that I want it to work purely via Group Policy settings, and it is not.
Hi JohnTwilley ,
with Edge Chromium V89 stable Group Policy for setting up sleeping tabs and vertical tabs are working now. With V88 this did not work.

Eleanor_Huynh is it possible to integrate a option for immidiatlly sending tabs to sleep, like in the flags but for the group policy? this would be great. Thanks.
- if it's not enabled by default then you can wait till it becomes available on its own. must be a controlled rollout.
