In this article, you’ll learn how to disable Microsoft Edge Workspaces using Intune and GPO. Both of these methods will prevent users from accessing the Workspaces feature.
Microsoft Edge Workspaces helps improve productivity for users in your organization. It’s a new feature in Edge that lets users organize their tabs into dedicated windows.
Some organizations may want to restrict access to the Edge workspaces feature for their users, in which case you can use Intune or a group policy. The “Edge Workspaces” policy in Intune allows you to enable or disable the workspace feature for Edge browsers. We will demonstrate both of these methods in this article, and you can choose the one that works best for you.
Note that Edge Workspaces is enabled for users who have a Microsoft Entra account and are using Edge version 114 or later. You can manage Edge Workspaces for your users by using the EdgeWorkspacesEnabled policy.
What is Microsoft Edge Workspaces?
The concept of Microsoft Edge workspaces is interesting. Using the Edge Workspaces, users can organize their browsing tasks into dedicated windows. The user and their collaborators each construct and curate their own sets of tabs and favorites for each Edge Workspace. Edge Workspaces are continuously updated and saved automatically.
The Edge Workspaces are enabled for users signed in with a Microsoft Entra account on Edge version 114 or later. Edge Workspaces created within a Microsoft Entra tenant are only accessible to users who are logged into Microsoft Edge with their matching Microsoft Entra account. Users must have access to a OneDrive for Business license to create an Edge Workspace.
