Microsoft Edge
Allow user feedback
Supported on Microsoft Edge version 77, Windows 7 or later
What it does
Microsoft Edge uses the Edge Feedback feature (enabled by default) to allow users to send feedback, suggestions, or customer surveys and to report any issues with the browser. Also, by default, users can't disable (turn off) the Edge Feedback feature. Starting with Microsoft Edge 105, if the user is signed into Microsoft Edge with their work or school account, their feedback is associated with their account and organization. If you enable this policy or don't configure it, users can invoke Edge Feedback. If you disable this policy, users can't invoke Edge Feedback.

- 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.
