For example, I blocked the microphone and camera access on many sites. Still, if you want more control over what sites try to access or not, managing site permissions might be something you want to do. Or, at the very least, the default is always to ask first. Now, Microsoft Edge blocks many of the things you want access to. Then select the site and items you want to block or allow access. Now select Cookies and site permissions from the left panel. Launch Microsoft Edge and click the Options button (three dots) and click Settings from the menu. If you don’t want to do the steps above for every site, you can set site permissions for all websites you visit, too. And it will reset them back to the default settings. Or, it will have permission to use the item, i.e., your system’s microphone or camera.įrom this section, you can also click on the Reset button on the “Reset site permissions?” message. The site will no longer allow access to the item you blocked. When you’re finished, make sure to hit the Refresh button on the site to apply the change. On the next screen, use the dropdown menus to allow or disallow or ask permissions.

Then click the lock icon in the address bar and click Permissions for this site. Launch Microsoft Edge and navigate to a site you want to manage permissions for. Manage Website Permissions with Microsoft Edge
