NewTabPageLocation text Description
Configures the default URL for the new tab page. The recommended version of this policy doesn't currently work and functions exactly like the mandatory version. This policy determines the page that opens when new tabs are created (including when new windows are opened). It also affects the startup page if this page opens to the new tab page. This policy doesn't determine which page opens on startup; that factor is controlled by the 'RestoreOnStartup' (Action to take on Microsoft Edge startup) policy. It also doesn't affect the home page if this home page opens to the new tab page. If you don't configure this policy, the default new tab page is used. If you configure this policy *and* the 'NewTabPageSetFeedType' (Configure the Microsoft Edge new tab page experience) policy, this policy takes precedence. If a blank tab is preferred, "about:blank" is the correct URL to use, not "about://blank". This policy is available only on Windows instances that are joined to a Microsoft Active Directory domain, joined to Microsoft Azure Active Directory, or joined to instances that enrolled for device management. On macOS, this policy is available only on instances that are managed via MDM or joined to a domain via MCX. Example value: https://www.fabrikam.com
