Jussi Palo I've yet to ever see a setting in GP that addresses this, can you point me to it?

Apologies Keith Davis, didn't have notifications enabled here so didn't notice your question until now. Wrote a blog article of this, as I kept forgetting how to do it: https://blog.jussipalo.com/2021/09/edge-reverting-to-classic.html

Let me know if it works for you!

  Jussi Palo The GP setting worked. However, LastPass still can't fill it - maybe something wrong with LP, but that used to work. The built-in password mechanism in Edge worked though.
