Hey everyone,
I’m trying to disable the password manager in Microsoft Edge, but there’s no direct way to do this from Edge settings. We manage multiple devices, so manually configuring each one isn’t feasible.
We use Hexnode UEM for device management, does anyone know if there’s a way to enforce this through Hexnode? Or are there any other alternatives to prevent users from saving passwords in Edge? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hello @bram,
Thank you for reaching out. Currently, Hexnode does not have a feature that fulfills your requirement. Although, you can use the following script to restrict Edge browser from saving your passwords.

$EdgePolicyPath = "HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge" # Check if the path exists, if not, create it if (!(Test-Path $EdgePolicyPath)) { New-Item -Path $EdgePolicyPath -Force | Out-Null } # Disable the password manager by setting the policy value to 0 Set-ItemProperty -Path $EdgePolicyPath -Name "PasswordManagerEnabled" -Value 0 -Type DWord # Force Edge to apply the policy Write-Output "Password Manager in Microsoft Edge has been disabled." |
You can execute the above script using Hexnode’s Execute Custom Script remote action. After executing the script, restart the device for the changes to take effect.
I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out to us.
Cheers,
