Microsoft Edge
Machine learning powered autofill suggestions
Supported on Microsoft Edge version 132, Windows 7 or later
What it does
Allows ML technology to predict and fill in forms and text fields for better browsing. Your personal data is secure and isn't used elsewhere. If you enable this policy or don't configure it, users can benefit from machine learning powered autofill suggestions, which improve efficiency by offering more accurate, context aware form recommendations based on historical autofill data. If you disable this policy, machine learning-powered autofill suggestions aren't shown, and autofill no longer uses cloud-based machine learning models to enhance form filling with smarter, context aware suggestions. Instead, autofill will rely on basic form data without the benefits of machine learning. This policy will be disabled if you disable 'AutofillAddressEnabled' (Enable AutoFill for addresses).

- The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
- Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
