    A small question, Policies for legacy Edge and Chromium are the same? I’m looking for the legacy Edge startup page policy, not for the Chromium

    Are you using the Microsoft Edge or Microsoft Edge Chromium ?
    – Microsoft Edge Chromium has extensive Group Policy settings available to achieve this task.

    Have you tried below steps:

    Open the Group Policy Management Console (gpmc.msc)
    Navigate to
    Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Microsoft Edge.
    Double-click Configure Start pages, set it to Enabled, and enter https://YourCustomUrl/HomePage

    Hi, thanks for your reply.

    1. Through registry:”HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppContainer\Storage\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\MicrosoftEdge\Protected – It is a violation of Windows Policy to modify. See aka.ms/browserpolicy”

    but it works only on the same machine. If I apply to the other machine, it doesn’t work.

    also tried with below registries

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\MicrosoftEdge\Internet Settings]
    “ProvisionedHomePages”=”www.abcd.com”
    “DisableLockdownOfStartPages”=dword:00000001
    “ConfigureOpenMicrosoftEdgeWith”=dword:00000003

    none of the options are working.

    2. As per the below article through the GPO (Local GPO). it’s not working.

    Hello, How are you trying?

    – For Microsoft Edge Startup Page Settings, it directly stated you can export them as a .reg file, and only merge the .reg file on the same PC. Merging the .reg file that was “exported from one PC will not work on any other PC”

    – Have to check some updated templates or tweak.
