GPO: Home button and home page URL
Hello, I've enabled two GPO to display the Home Button and to configure the Home Page URL. Is it possible to enforce the use of the Home page URL instead of the New Tab page when home button...
LMichel Yes, there is a Group Policy setting for this.
You have to use the PolicyDefinitions from the Edge Insider Enterprise site (https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/enterprise).
User Policy - Administrative Templates - Microsoft Edge - Startup, home page and new tab page:
Set the new tab page as the home page = Disabled
Hi there,
Are you using the Edge Dev?
it seems like the GPO responsible for showing home button is taking effect but the other GPO responsible for pointing Home button to a custom URL is kinda malfunctioning. it successfully set the custom URL but it's failing to make Home button to actually use that custom URL.
Have you tried configuring those settings in 1 GPO instead of 2?
it might as well just be a bug.

- Can you test it with Edge Dev? it's a lot more newer than Beta and has more bug fixes.
LMichel, Thank you for alerting us to this issue. I will reach out to the team that works on policies and see what they can do here. Thanks - Elliot
