How to Enable or Disable Sign-in to Microsoft Edge using non-Microsoft accounts in Windows 11

Microsoft Edge sign-in with non-Microsoft accounts controls whether third-party login buttons for services like Google or Apple appear on your browser sign-in screen. Starting with Microsoft Edge version 150, this setting lets you decide if people can link external services to their browser profiles.

Blocking this option hides external login buttons entirely, keeping your browser profiles tied to standard Microsoft accounts. Turn this setting on or off to manage how your browser handles different login credentials.

Here’s How:

Disable Sign-in to Microsoft Edge using non-Microsoft accounts for All Users

To disable edge non-microsoft sign-in for all users on your computer, you need to use the Registry Editor to block external account access globally. This blocks people from signing into the browser with Google or other non-Microsoft accounts across every user profile on the machine at the same time.

1. Click the Start button.
2. Type regedit and press Enter. This opens the Registry Editor. You might see a User Account Control prompt; click Yes. (Requires Admin Privileges)
3. In the Registry Editor, go to the following location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge

Missing registry keys require manual creation. Right-click the ‘Microsoft’ folder, select ‘New’, choose ‘Key’, and name the folder Edge.

4. Right-click on 🖱️ the Edge key.
5. Select New, then DWORD (32-bit) Value.
6. Name the new value NonMicrosoftAccountSignInEnabled
7. Double-click on NonMicrosoftAccountSignInEnabled.
8. In the Value data box, type 0 and click OK.

Name the new value NonMicrosoftAccountSignInEnabled. Double-click the new entry, type 0 in the Value data box, and click OK. Restricting this setting removes external sign-in options while preserving standard Microsoft account access for all local Windows 11 users.
