Chrome for Testing 156 marks AutofillAddressEnabled and AutofillCreditCardEnabled deprecated; AutofillSettings, in Chrome since 154, replaces them. One entry blocks every autofill type on every site. Checked on an amd64 VM: chrome://policy shows AutofillSettings and the rest of the app's policies as OK. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Chrome for Testing 156, the build it pins, marks both deprecated onchrome://policy; they still apply, but are on their way out.AutofillSettings, in Chrome since 154, replaces them. This swaps them for one entry that blocks every autofill type on every site:References: Chrome Enterprise release notes (AutofillSettings in 154, the booleans deprecated in 156), and the policy's reference in Microsoft Edge's docs (the same Chromium policy).
Tests
