What it does

This policy setting lets you decide whether employees can use Autofill to automatically fill in form fields while using Microsoft Edge. By default, employees can choose whether to use Autofill. If you enable this setting, employees can use Autofill to automatically fill in forms while using Microsoft Edge. If you disable this setting, employees can't use Autofill to automatically fill in forms while using Microsoft Edge. If you don't configure this setting, employees can choose whether to use Autofill to automatically fill in forms while using Microsoft Edge.

These deployment candidates come from the ADMX template; they are separate from the native CSP mapping above.

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.
