Policy needed: "Go to an intranet site for a one-word entry in the Address bar"
For enterprise a policy like the one in IE called "Go to an intranet site for a one-word entry in the Address bar" is very needed. As an enterprise we have a lot of intranet sites and services usi...
Thank you, ToMMeR, stesch79 and paf_skov for your feedback. I can appreciate those circumstances and your request.
We will look into adding a policy to make single-word queries navigate and I'll follow up on this thread with an update as soon as I have one.
Thanks again for giving us this important feedback and for describing your specific scenarios! It helps!Jared

MicrosoftAngelPRU, ToMMeR, and Omega47,
Thank you very much for testing so quickly and for already providing feedback! I'm glad to hear this largely meets your needs.
I've made a note about the request for a search fallback on timeout rather than the error message. I will discuss this with the team and we will look into it.
ToMMeR, have a great vacation and I look forward to any additional feedback upon your return!
In the meantime, if anyone else has additional feedback about this policy, I will continue to monitor this thread.
Thanks again,
Jared
Sorry for the delay, but I did finally get to test this policy as well. I also agree with the others that the preferred behavior would be do perform a search if the intranet site doesn't resolve.
That being said, I also noticed a different issue. This policy does not work if the intranet site has a dash "-" in the name. For example, typing in the single word "intranet" would correctly go to the "intranet" site. However "ab-intranet" would perform a search rather than resolving to an intranet site.
