GitHub: GitHub - TheBobPony/MSEdgeTweaker: Easily configure Microsoft Edge, the way you want it!
Via: This script lets you debloat Microsoft Edge and turn off unnecessary featuresMSEdge Tweaker is an open-source script you can get from GitHub. Its first release lets you turn off the initial experience, splash screen, data import from other browsers (that thing that begs you to let it siphon your Chrome data), and more. Here is the full list of currently supported policies:
According to the project's GitHub description, the developer plans to implement more options and policies in future updates. Keep in mind, though, that using policies for configuring Microsoft Edge and its features results in the latter showing a banner with a message that the browser is managed by your organization.
- Disable the first run experience and splash screen
- Disable importing from other web browsers on launch
- Disable browser sign in and sync services
- Disable collections feature
- Disable edge sidebar
- Disable shopping assistant
- Disable sponsored links in the new tab page
- Disable insider banner in about page
Also, as of right now, there is no way to revert the changes. You can bypass this by opening the script in Notepad, checking what registry keys each option creates or modifies, and then manually reverting them in the system registry.
