Prevent the browser group from syncing to and from this PC. This turns off and disables the browser group on the sync your settings page in PC settings. The browser group contains settings and info like history and favorites.
If you enable this policy setting, the browser group, including info like history and favorites, will not be synced.
Use the option Allow users to turn browser syncing on so that syncing is turned off by default but not disabled.
If you do not set or disable this setting, syncing of the browser group is on by default and configurable by the user.
Fix:
(1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Sync your settings!Do not sync browser settings
