ImportOnEachLaunch

Allow import of data from other browsers on each Microsoft Edge launch

Supported versions

  • On Windows since 104 or later

Description

If you enable this policy, users will see a prompt to import their browsing data from other browsers on each Microsoft Edge launch.

If you disable this policy, users will never see a prompt to import their browsing data from other browsers on each Microsoft Edge launch.

If the policy is left unconfigured, users can activate this feature from a Microsoft Edge prompt or from the Settings page.
