Method 1: Using the Browser Settings
The setting for saving passwords on the Microsoft Edge can be found in the browser settings. This option can be accessed by any user that can open the Microsoft Edge. By changing the toggle option, users can enable or disable this feature. If you want to grey out the option from other users, then check the Registry or Group Policy methods. Follow the below steps to locate the setting and configure it:
Method 2: Using the Registry Editor
The Windows Registry is a database of different kinds of settings provided by Microsoft Windows. It will contain the setting for the operating system and for the application. Unlike the other methods, configuring the Registry Editor is a bit technical. One wrong configuration in the Registry Editor can cause multiple issues for the system. However, by following the below steps, you will be able to configure the password manager for Microsoft Edge safely.
Method 3: Using the Local Group Policy Editor
The Group Policy allows users to configure and manage the operating system. It consists of two major categories of group policies, Computer, and User. The left pane of the Group Policy Editor can be used to navigate to the specific setting. However, the Local Group Policy Editor isn’t available for the Windows Home edition. If you are using the Windows Home edition, then skip to the next step. For the older version of Edge, the path will be “User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Microsoft Edge\“. The name of the policy-setting will be “Configure Password Manager“.
