Introducing Sleeping Tabs Experiment: Improving Memory Usage in Microsoft Edge
HotCakeX I also installed Edge stable version 88.0.705.50. I used Group Policies to Enable Sleeping Tabs and a 15 minute inactivity rule. I verified it is in the Edge://Policy, but it will NOT trigger unless I enable it via Edge://Flags.
Am I missing something? Users should not have to enable it via Flags if I am managing it via GPOs.
Hello John, have checked this at my company some minutes ago (with the 5 minutes sleeping rule) and it worked perfecly.
Maybe it is, how HotCakeX wrote.

Rene_Gross When you say "and it worked perfecly.", do you mean without enabling it via FLAGS? Mine works if I enable it via FLAGS. My issue is that I want it to work purely via Group Policy settings, and it is not.

Hi John, mistakenly i wrote, that it works. But it did not. I think, i had set the flag for that on this computer some times ago. Today i testet again with our terminalservers. There where never set flags, It did not work! Only if i set the flag.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi JohnTwilley ,
with Edge Chromium V89 stable Group Policy for setting up sleeping tabs and vertical tabs are working now. With V88 this did not work.
Edge Chromium v89 stable
Group Policy files for Edge v89
Windows Server 2019 TS
Windows 10 VDI / PC
Eleanor_Huynh is it possible to integrate a option for immidiatlly sending tabs to sleep, like in the flags but for the group policy? this would be great. Thanks.
