Tested this issue on skytap Env "Windows GPO Testing - Stable - K" on Win 7 Client with version #58.0.3029.96


1. In Server, Enabled HomePageLocation policy as "www.youtube.com" and disabled policy "HomepageIsNewTabPage"
2. In the client machine, executed "gpupdate /force" in console and launched chrome.

Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
HomePageLocation policy will not work unless the machine is domain joined.

This is specified in the documentation ("This policy is not available on Windows instances that are not joined to an Active Directory domain.")

https://www.chromium.org/administrators/policy-list-3

Closing this. Please reopen this bug if your machine is domain joined.
