        "content": "Hi \u2014 could you clarify what you mean by **\"edge secure\"**? I think you might be referring to one of these features in Microsoft Edge:\n\n- \u201cEdge Secure Network\u201d (the browser\u2019s VPN-like service)  \n- \u201cEnhanced Security Mode\u201d (formerly \u201cSuper Duper Secure Mode\u201d)  \n- Added Security that shows up in the URL bar when visiting unfamiliar sites  \n\nIf you tell me exactly how it appears (where you see \u201csecure\u201d, what it says, and which version of Edge you're using), I can give detailed steps with JAWS to disable it. In the meantime, here are some general instructions for disabling Edge\u2019s Enhanced/Secure features \u2014 depending on what you're seeing.\n\n---\n\n## General Steps to Disable Edge\u2019s Enhanced/Secure Features\n\n### 1. Disable \u201cEnhanced Security Mode\u201d (a.k.a. \u201cSuper Duper Secure Mode\u201d)\n\nThis is likely the \u201csecure\u201d feature you're talking about. Disabling it should remove extra security overlays like \u201cAdded security\u201d in the address bar.\n\nWith the browser open:\n\n1. Press **Alt + F**, then press **S** to open the **Settings** menu.  \n2. Navigate to **Privacy, search, and services**.  \n3. Scroll down to the **Security** section.  \n4. Find the toggle labeled **\u201cEnhance your security on the web\u201d** (or similar), and turn it **Off**. ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-security-browse-safer?utm_source=openai))  \n\nIf you want to disable it only for specific sites:\n\n- When you\u2019re on a website and see \u201cAdded security\u201d near the address bar, click that label.\n- Then, choose **\u201cEnhance security for this site\u201d** and toggle it **off** (or add the site to an exceptions list). ([ghacks.net](https://www.ghacks.net/2022/07/29/microsoft-edges-enhanced-security-mode-explained/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n### 2. Disable \u201cEdge Secure Network\u201d\n\nIf by \u201cEdge Secure\u201d you meant the browser\u2019s **Secure Network** (VPN-like protection):\n\n1. Open Settings (**Alt + F**, then **S**) in Edge.  \n2. Go to the **Privacy, search, and services** section.  \n3. Look for **Edge Secure Network** and turn that toggle **Off**.  \n\n**Note:** If your Edge browser is managed (by an organization, workplace, or school), some settings may be locked and you may see a message like \u201cThis setting is turned off for managed browsers.\u201d In that case, IT admin policies are controlling the setting. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftEdge/comments/17bno4a?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n### 3. Use JAWS to Navigate\n\nSince you\u2019re using JAWS, here are some helpful tips for finding and toggling settings:\n\n- Use the **Region List** or **Landmark navigation** to jump to the \u201cSettings\u201d or \u201cPrivacy, search, and services\u201d section quickly.\n- Use **Shortcut keys**: `Alt + F` opens the Edge menu; `S` then usually picks **Settings**.\n- Once in \u201cPrivacy, search, and services\u201d, use **Tab** to navigate through toggles.\n- JAWS\u2019 **Forms Mode** helps when focusing and interacting with settings elements like checkboxes, toggles, and radio buttons.\n\n---\n\nIf you can provide a little more detail (what you see, where, and your Edge version), I can walk you through the exact steps with JAWS so you can disable just the thing you want."

This opens Edge\u2019s \u201cSettings and more\u201d menu.\n\n2. **Select Settings**  \n   With the menu open, press **S**. That should jump to \u201cSettings\u201d and open it. If that doesn't work, press **Tab** or **Down Arrow** until you hear \u201cSettings\u201d and then press **Enter**.\n\n3. **Move to the \u201cPrivacy, search, and services\u201d Section**  \n   Once you\u2019re in Settings, do this:\n\n   - Press **Ctrl + L** to focus the address bar (if needed), then type `edge://settings/privacy` and press **Enter**. This URL leads directly to the \u201cPrivacy, search, and services\u201d page.  \n   - If that URL method doesn\u2019t work, you can also:  \n     \u2022 Press **Tab** repeatedly or use the **Left Arrow** / **Right Arrow** to move through the sidebar menu until you hear \u201cPrivacy, search, and services.\u201d  \n     \u2022 Once you hear that, press **Enter** to select it.\n\n---\n\n## Why You Might Not Hear \u201cPrivacy, search, and services\u201d\n\n- The sidebar might be collapsed or hidden due to screen size or layout.  \n- Some screen readers or JAWS modes skip over parts of the sidebar until you expand or focus on them.  \n- Edge might be managed (via organization settings), which sometimes limits what you can see or change.  \n\n---\n\n## What You\u2019ll Find in \u201cPrivacy, search, and services\u201d\n\nOnce you're on that page, you can do things like:\n\n- Adjust **Tracking prevention** (Basic / Balanced / Strict) ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/topic/adjust-privacy-settings-in-microsoft-edge-600ee799-081c-4ab7-b6c2-d8a9baeda3c4?utm_source=openai))  \n- Turn off toggles under **Security** (for example: \u201cProtect from harmful websites and downloads,\u201d \u201cUse secure DNS,\u201d etc.) ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/microsoft-edge/privacy?utm_source=openai))  \n- Manage site permissions (camera, location, etc.) under **\u201cSite permissions\u201d** ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/location-and-privacy-in-microsoft-edge?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\nIf you tell me which version of Edge you're using (for example, \u201cEdge on Windows 10,\u201d \u201cEdge on Windows 11,\u201d or the specific version number you see under **Settings \u2192 About Microsoft Edge**), I can give more precise keyboard steps for your setup."
