Enable the linked account feature (obsolete)
OBSOLETE: This policy is obsolete and doesn't work after Microsoft Edge version 133.
Supported versions
- On Windows and macOS since 107, until 133
Description
This policy is obsolete because Microsoft Edge no longer supports the linked account feature.
Microsoft Edge guides a user to the account management page where they can link a Microsoft Account (MSA) to an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) account.
If you enable or don't configure this policy, linked account information will be shown on a flyout. When the Azure AD profile doesn't have a linked account it will show "Add account".
If you disable this policy, linked accounts will be turned off and no extra information will be shown.
Supported features
- Can be mandatory: Yes
- Can be recommended: No
