Takmil Thanks for reaching out! You will want to try out "Configure the new tab page URL" under Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Microsoft Edge > Startup, home page and new tab page. Please let me know how that works for you!

With regards to the extension site you mention, that would be on them to update where they offer their extension. If a user is particularly worried about an extension, I encourage them to report it in the store so that the team can verify. If a user is more comfortable enabling the extension from the Chrome store in Edge, they also have that ability. I do appreciate you bringing this up, though. 🙂

tistou Thanks for reaching out! This policy is available only on Windows instances that are joined to a Microsoft Active Directory domain or Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise instances that are enrolled for device management. Does the device you're testing on meet those requirements? If you're still having trouble try configuring through the group policy editor instead of directly in the registry.

  You're welcome
  
  I have a Windows 10 Pro x64 (normal)
  Won't it work then ?
  
  This feature does not have an option directly in Edge ?
  
  Thanks
