Enable sign in click to action dialog (obsolete)
Supported on Microsoft Edge version 99-130, Windows 7 or later
What it does
OBSOLETE: This policy is obsolete and doesn't work after Microsoft Edge 130. Configure this policy to show sign in click to action dialog on New tab page. If you enable or don't configure this policy, sign in click to action dialog is shown on New tab page. If you disable this policy, sign in click to action dialog isn't shown on the New tab page. This policy is obsolete as the feature isn't enabled in Microsoft Edge, and this policy isn't supported for Microsoft Edge in the future.

- 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.
