Disable: 'Open a new tab with an empty tab' This policy setting specifies what happens when Microsoft Edge opens a new tab. By default, a new tab page appears. If you disable this policy setting, Microsoft Edge opens a new, empty tab. Employees can't change this option. If you enable or don't configure this policy setting, Microsoft Edge opens a new tab with a new tab page, including Top Sites, Top Sites with suggested content, or a blank page. Employees can change what type of tab page appears. Counter Measure: Configure this setting depending on your organization's requirements. Potential Impact: Users will need to manually open web pages.
