How to Manage Your Addresses in Microsoft Edge Wallet
This article explains how to manage addresses in the Microsoft Edge Wallet. Microsoft Edge browser is the default browser for Windows 11 and Windows 12. You can switch to their preferred or favorite browser if you prefer a different browser. Edge is built on the Chromium engine, which is the same technology used by Google Chrome.
Why manage your addresses? Keeping your information up to date saves time when shopping online. It ensures that forms fill out correctly without manual typing.
What happens when done? Your shipping and billing information will be accurate, and you will prevent old or incorrect addresses from cluttering your checkout process. By syncing your Microsoft Account, these addresses become available across all your devices, not just the computer you are currently using.
Add or delete saved address in Microsoft Edge Wallet
Microsoft Edge stores your private details in a secure digital Wallet. This makes filling out online forms fast and easy.
To manage your saved addresses, follow these steps:
- Open the Microsoft Edge browser.
- Click the three horizontal dots in the top right corner and select Settings.

Alternatively, you can go directly to your wallet by typing edge://wallet into your address bar and pressing Enter.
Once you are in the Wallet dashboard:
- Click on the Personal info tab.
- To remove an address, click the three dots next to the address and select Delete.
- To add an address, click the Add address button in the top right corner and enter your details.
Close the settings tab when you are finished.
Turn On or Off Autofill address in Microsoft Edge via the Registry Editor
If you want to prevent Edge from saving or using addresses, you can use the Registry Editor. Note: Registry edits are intended for enterprise and IT administrator use. These settings may be overwritten by browser updates or your Microsoft Account sync settings.
To use this method, open the Windows Registry editor and go to this path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge
If the Edge folder does not exist, right-click the Microsoft folder, select New, and create a key named Edge.
Right-click in the empty space on the right side, select New, and choose DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name it AutofillAddressEnabled.
Double-click AutofillAddressEnabled to change the settings:
- To turn off autofill, set the value to 0.
- To turn on autofill, delete the AutofillAddressEnabled item.
Restart your computer to make sure the changes take effect.
Conclusion
Managing your addresses in the Microsoft Edge Wallet keeps your checkout process smooth and secure. By syncing your account, your data stays consistent across all your devices. If you need to restrict these features in a business setting, the Registry Editor provides a way to control them.
