Microsoft Edge Pop Up Blocker Exceptions

As of this writing, there is not pop up blocker exception setting in Microsoft Edge. There is only an ON/OFF option.

However, you can still adjust this manually through the registry or regedit. You can manually edit here:

[HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppContainer\Storage\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\MicrosoftEdge\New Windows\Allow]

Pop Up Blocker Exceptions Allow

Or you can follow the instructions below:

  • -click start > run
  • -type: cmd
  • -type: echo y | reg add "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppContainer\Storage\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\MicrosoftEdge\New Windows\Allow" /v "url-name-here" /t REG_BINARY /d 00000000

(NOTE: keep the quotes in-tact. Use *.domain.tld for wildcard.)

Pop Up Blocker Exceptions Allow In Private

Also note that PrivateWindows mode has separate values located here (which doesn't mean they are all that private):

  • -click start > run
  • -type: cmd
  • -type: echo y | reg add "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppContainer\Storage\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\MicrosoftEdge\New Windows\AllowInPrivate" /v "url-name-here" /t REG_BINARY /d 00000000

(NOTE: keep the quotes in-tact. Use *.domain.tld for wildcard.)
