Enable using roaming copies for Microsoft Edge profile data

Supported versions

  • On Windows since 85 or later

Description

Enable this policy to use roaming profiles on Windows. The settings stored in Microsoft Edge profiles (favorites and preferences) are also saved to a file stored in the Roaming user profile folder (or the ___location specified by the administrator through the RoamingProfileLocation policy).

If you disable this policy or don't configure it, only the regular local profiles are used.

The SyncDisabled only disables cloud synchronization and has no impact on this policy.

See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2150058 for more information on using roaming user profiles.
