I'm looking to turn off autofill globally for both Edge and Chrome due to security concerns related to clickjacking. I've managed to disable built-in password managers, but since we rely on a third-party password manager, I need to ensure autofill is completely turned off too. I've found how to disable autofill for credit cards and addresses, but I'm wondering if there's a way to manage this setting more thoroughly, possibly through a registry key or GPO. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

You can disable saving new passwords and addresses, but keep in mind that any saved autofill data will still stick around unless removed manually from the browser. Also, the autofill settings for your third-party password manager should typically be adjusted within its own console, not Chrome itself.
I get that, but I actually found settings in the browser. If you go to Settings > Passwords & Autofill > MS Password Manager > More Settings > Autofill Passwords and Passkeys, you can disable it there. But it seems like turning that off prevents my browser extension from autofilling as well. So, I'm curious if this can be handled through GPO.
