This feature disables autofill in address bar, so everytime, the whole website has to be reentered to get there. image

I agree with this. This seems a bit unnecessary and may not result any significant improvement to performance or functionality.

Go there in your registry editor "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge" and turn the value of these keys into 1: "SearchSuggestEnabled" and "AutofillAddressEnabled"

@NonVolatileHuman Please do not give wrong advice.

The only thing to enable is LocalProvidersEnabled and will fix your problem.

  1. AutofillAddressEnabled - Auto fills your address in input boxes in forms!
  2. SearchSuggestEnabled - This policy is not modified by the tool

I'm terribly sorry, @fschatbot. I didn't mean to, I believe I got my keys mixed up.

fschatbot commented 10 months ago

No problem @NonVolatileHuman. Its ok to make mistakes.
