I have a kiosk set up on Windows 10 Pro with allowing Edge "As a public browser" and I find that a user can create a favorite but can't delete it or otherwise manage favorites. Also, the favorites will persist after the user ends their session. How can I turn off the ability to add a favorite?

    Hi @Chris Barth

    If you don't want to allow users to add a favorite, you can disable this policy: Allows users to edit favorites. Then users can't add a favorite in kiosk mode.
