How to Disable Address Bar Drop-Down List Suggestions in Microsoft Edge [Tutorial]
Microsoft Edge is a new web browser that is available across the Windows 10 device family. It is designed for Windows 10 to be faster, safer, and compatible with the modern Web.
When you hop on the Microsoft Edge browser to visit a website, the usual starting point is the address bar. You can either go to a web address or search an engine such as Google or Bing.
Normally, you’d have needed to type in full the full address of the page you want to visit, down to the last character. However, acknowledging that it’s next to impossible to memorize the long strings and web addresses, the browser provides the suggestion dropdown list.
The Address bar drop-down functionality in Microsoft Edge allows showing suggested search results when typing in the Microsoft Edge address bar (suggestions list).
If you like, you can configure the Allow Address bar drop-down list suggestions group policy setting that lets you decide whether the Address bar drop-down functionality is available in Microsoft Edge. Microsoft recommends disabling this setting if you want to minimize network connections from Microsoft Edge to Microsoft services.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 10 operating system (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, and Samsung.
