Edge policies

Don't know if this helps but here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/de...-edge-policies

Settings are stored in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Preferences when you change it via the UI:
"edge_follow_enabled" -> "Show suggestions to follow creators in Microsoft Edge"
"edge_follow_notification_enabled" -> "Get notified when creators you follow post new content"
"edge_underside_triggering_enabled" -> "Get notifications of related things you can explore with Discover"

This is a JSON file, set the values to false to disable them (unfortunately no easy way to do this via Group Policy).

Example to view the values in PowerShell:

Code:

Get-Content -Raw -LiteralPath "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Preferences" | ConvertFrom-Json | Select edge_follow_enabled, edge_follow_notification_enabled,edge_underside_triggering_enabled | fl

For "Get notified when creators you follow post new content", the setting seems to get ignored (option gets greyed-out) if "Show suggestions to follow creators in Microsoft Edge" is disabled, which can be done by setting the EdgeFollowEnabled policy ("Enable Follow Service in Microsoft Edge") to disabled.

For "Get notifications of related things you can explore with Discover", there seems to be no way to set it via registry/GPO as of the v113.0.1774.50 Administrative Templates.
