Shades-DE There are quite a few policies available to configure Search in Microsoft Edge.  

 

First would be the Default Search Providers policies (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#default-search-provider) which includes the NewTabPageSearchBox (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#newtabpagesearchbox) 

 

For the sidebar search, see DefaultSearchProviderContextMenuAccessAllowed (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#defaultsearchprovidercontextmenuaccessallowed)

 

The policy documentation should have all the information necessary.  Thanks!
