If you enable this policy, Microsoft Edge Application Guard ignores other sources of proxy configurations.

If you don't configure this policy, Microsoft Edge Application Guard uses the proxy configuration of the host.

This policy does not affect the proxy configuration of Microsoft Edge outside of Application Guard (on the host).

The ProxyMode field lets you specify the proxy server used by Microsoft Edge Application Guard.

The ProxyPacUrl field is a URL to a proxy .pac file.

The ProxyServer field is a URL for the proxy server.

If you choose the 'direct' value as 'ProxyMode', all other fields are ignored.

If you choose the 'auto_detect' value as 'ProxyMode', all other fields are ignored.

If you choose the 'fixed_servers' value as 'ProxyMode', the 'ProxyServer' field is used.

If you choose the 'pac_script' value as 'ProxyMode', the 'ProxyPacUrl' field is used.

If 'ManagedFavorites' (Configure favorites) are configured, those favorites will also be synced to the container.

If you enable this policy, editing favorites in the container is disabled. So, the add favorites and add favorites folder buttons will be blurred out in the UI of the container browser.

If you disable or don't configure this policy, favorites on the host will not be shared to the container.</string><string id="ApplicationGuardPassiveModeEnabled">Ignore Application Guard site list configuration and browse Edge normally</string><string id="ApplicationGuardPassiveModeEnabled_Explain">Set whether Edge should ignore the Application Guard site list configuration for trusted and untrusted sites.

If you enable this policy, all navigations from Edge, including navigations to untrusted sites, will be accessed normally within Edge without redirecting to the Application Guard container. Note: this policy ONLY impacts Edge, so navigations from other browsers might get redirected to the Application Guard Container if you have the corresponding extensions enabled.

If you disable or don't configure this policy, Edge does not ignore the Application Guard site list. If users try to navigate to an untrusted site in the host, the site will open in the container.

Independent of the filter, only certificates that match the server's certificate request are selected.

Examples for the usage of the $FILTER section:

* When $FILTER is set to { &quot;ISSUER&quot;: { &quot;CN&quot;: &quot;$ISSUER_CN&quot; } }, only client certificates issued by a certificate with the CommonName $ISSUER_CN are selected.

* When $FILTER contains both the &quot;ISSUER&quot; and the &quot;SUBJECT&quot; sections, only client certificates that satisfy both conditions are selected.

* When $FILTER contains a &quot;SUBJECT&quot; section with the &quot;O&quot; value, a certificate needs at least one organization matching the specified value to be selected.

* When $FILTER contains a &quot;SUBJECT&quot; section with a &quot;OU&quot; value, a certificate needs at least one organizational unit matching the specified value to be selected.

* When $FILTER is set to {}, the selection of client certificates is not additionally restricted. Note that filters provided by the web server still apply.

This policy doesn't work because it was only intended to serve only as a short-term mechanism to give enterprises more time to update their environments if they were found to be incompatible with the SameSite behavior change.

If you still require legacy cookie behavior, please use 'LegacySameSiteCookieBehaviorEnabledForDomainList' (Revert to legacy SameSite behavior for cookies on specified sites) to configure behavior on a per-domain basis.

Lets you revert all cookies to legacy SameSite behavior. Reverting to legacy behavior causes cookies that don't specify a SameSite attribute to be treated as if they were &quot;SameSite=None&quot;, removes the requirement for &quot;SameSite=None&quot; cookies to carry the &quot;Secure&quot; attribute, and skips the scheme comparison when evaluating if two sites are same-site.

If you don't set this policy, the default SameSite behavior for cookies will depend on other configuration sources for the SameSite-by-default feature, the Cookies-without-SameSite-must-be-secure feature, and the Schemeful Same-Site feature.

Any ID that is omitted is treated as a wildcard with one exception, and that exception is that a product ID cannot be specified without a vendor ID also being specified. Otherwise, the policy will not be valid and will be ignored.

The USB permission model uses the URL of the requesting site (&quot;requesting URL&quot;) and the URL of the top-level frame site (&quot;embedding URL&quot;) to grant permission to the requesting URL to access the USB device. The requesting URL may be different than the embedding URL when the requesting site is loaded in an iframe. Therefore, the &quot;urls&quot; field can contain up to two URL strings delimited by a comma to specify the requesting and embedding URL respectively. If only one URL is specified, then access to the corresponding USB devices will be granted when the requesting site's URL matches this URL regardless of embedding status.

'encoded_image={google:imageThumbnail},image_url={google:imageURL},sbisrc={google:imageSearchSource},original_width={google:imageOriginalWidth},original_height={google:imageOriginalHeight}'.

If you don't set this policy, image search requests are sent using the GET method.

Starting in Microsoft Edge 84, you can set this policy as a recommended policy. If the user has already set a default search provider, the default search provider configured by this recommended policy will not be added to the list of search providers the user can choose from. If this is the desired behavior, use the 'ManagedSearchEngines' (Manage Search Engines) policy.

Example value: content={imageThumbnail},url={imageURL},sbisrc={SearchSource}</string><string id="NewTabPageSearchBox">Configure the new tab page search box experience</string><string id="NewTabPageSearchBox_Explain">You can configure the new tab page search box to use &quot;Search box (Recommended)&quot; or &quot;Address bar&quot; to search on new tabs. This policy only works if you set the search engine to a value other than Bing by setting the following two policies: 'DefaultSearchProviderEnabled' (Enable the default search provider) and 'DefaultSearchProviderSearchURL' (Default search provider search URL).

 If you disable or don't configure this policy and:

- If the address bar default search engine is Bing, the new tab page uses the search box to search on new tabs.
- If the address bar default search engine is not Bing, users are offered an additional choice (use &quot;Address bar&quot;) when searching on new tabs.


If you enable this policy and set it to:

- &quot;Search box (Recommended)&quot; ('bing'), the new tab page uses the search box to search on new tabs.
- &quot;Address bar&quot; ('redirect'), the new tab page search box uses the address bar to search on new tabs.

Policy options mapping:

* bing (bing) = Search box (Recommended)

* redirect (redirect) = Address bar

Use the preceding information when configuring this policy.

Example value: bing</string><string id="NewTabPageSearchBox_bing">Search box (Recommended)</string><string id="NewTabPageSearchBox_redirect">Address bar</string><string id="Experimentation_group">Experimentation</string><string id="FeatureFlagOverridesControl">Configure users ability to override feature flags</string><string id="FeatureFlagOverridesControl_Explain">Configures users ability to override state of feature flags.
If you set this policy to 'CommandLineOverridesEnabled', users can override state of feature flags using command line arguments but not edge://flags page.

If you set this policy to 'OverridesEnabled', users can override state of feature flags using command line arguments or edge://flags page.

If you set this policy to 'OverridesDisabled', users can't override state of feature flags using command line arguments or edge://flags page.

If you don't configure this policy, the behavior is the same as the 'OverridesEnabled'.

Policy options mapping:

Extensions already installed will be disabled if blocked, without a way for the user to enable them. After a disabled extension is removed from the blocklist it will automatically get re-enabled.

A blocklist value of '*' means all extensions are blocked unless they are explicitly listed in the allowlist.

If this policy isn't set, the user can install any extension in Microsoft Edge.

Example value:

extension_id1
extension_id2</string><string id="ExtensionInstallBlocklistDesc">Control which extensions cannot be installed</string><string id="ExtensionInstallAllowlist">Allow specific extensions to be installed</string><string id="ExtensionInstallAllowlist_Explain">Setting this policy specifies which extensions are not subject to the blocklist.

A blocklist value of * means all extensions are blocked and users can only install extensions listed in the allow list.

By default, all extensions are allowed. However, if you prohibited extensions by policy, you can use the list of allowed extensions to change that policy.

Example value:

extension_id1
extension_id2</string><string id="ExtensionInstallAllowlistDesc">Allow specific extensions to be installed</string><string id="ExtensionInstallForcelist">Control which extensions are installed silently</string><string id="ExtensionInstallForcelist_Explain">Set this policy to specify a list of apps and extensions that install silently, without user interaction. Users can't uninstall or turn off this setting. Permissions are granted implicitly, including the enterprise.deviceAttributes and enterprise.platformKeys extension APIs. Note: These 2 APIs aren't available to apps and extensions that aren't force-installed.

If you don't set this policy, no apps or extensions are autoinstalled and users can uninstall any app in Microsoft Edge.

This policy supercedes 'ExtensionInstallBlocklist' (Control which extensions cannot be installed) policy. If a previously force-installed app or extension is removed from this list, Microsoft Edge automatically uninstalls it.

For Windows instances not joined to a Microsoft Active Directory domain, forced installation is limited to apps and extensions listed in the Microsoft Edge Add-ons website.

On macOS instances, apps and extensions from outside the Microsoft Edge Add-ons website can only be force installed if the instance is managed via MDM, or joined to a domain via MCX.

The source code of any extension can be altered by users with developer tools, potentially rendering the extension unfunctional. If this is a concern, configure the DeveloperToolsDisabled policy.

Each list item of the policy is a string that contains an extension ID and, optionally, an &quot;update&quot; URL separated by a semicolon (;). The extension ID is the 32-letter string found, for example, on edge://extensions when in Developer mode. If specified, the &quot;update&quot; URL should point to an Update Manifest XML document ( https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095043 ). By default, the Microsoft Edge Add-ons website's update URL is used. The &quot;update&quot; URL set in this policy is only used for the initial installation; subsequent updates of the extension use the update URL in the extension's manifest.

Note: This policy doesn't apply to InPrivate mode. Read about hosting extensions at [Publish and update extensions in the Microsoft Edge Add-ons website](/microsoft-edge/extensions-chromium/enterprise/hosting-and-updating).

Example value:

gbchcmhmhahfdphkhkmpfmihenigjmpp;https://edge.microsoft.com/extensionwebstorebase/v1/crx
abcdefghijklmnopabcdefghijklmnop</string><string id="ExtensionInstallForcelistDesc">Control which extensions are installed silently</string><string id="ExtensionInstallSources">Configure extension and user script install sources</string><string id="ExtensionInstallSources_Explain">Define URLs that can install extensions and themes.

Define URLs that can install extensions and themes directly without having to drag and drop the packages to the edge://extensions page.

Each item in this list is an extension-style match pattern (see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095039). Users can easily install items from any URL that matches an item in this list. Both the location of the *.crx file and the page where the download is started from (in other words, the referrer) must be allowed by these patterns. Do not host the files at a location that requires authentication.

The 'ExtensionInstallBlocklist' (Control which extensions cannot be installed) policy takes precedence over this policy. Any extensions that's on the block list won't be installed, even if it comes from a site on this list.

Example value:

https://corp.contoso.com/*</string><string id="ExtensionInstallSourcesDesc">Configure extension and user script install sources</string><string id="ExtensionAllowedTypes">Configure allowed extension types</string><string id="ExtensionAllowedTypes_Explain">Setting the policy controls which apps and extensions may be installed in Microsoft Edge, which hosts they can interact with, and limits runtime access.

If you don't set this policy, there aren't any restrictions on acceptable extension and app types.

Extensions and apps which have a type that's not on the list won't be installed. Each value should be one of these strings:

* &quot;extension&quot;

* &quot;theme&quot;

* &quot;user_script&quot;

* &quot;hosted_app&quot;

See the Microsoft Edge extensions documentation for more information about these types.

Note: This policy also affects extensions and apps to be force-installed using 'ExtensionInstallForcelist' (Control which extensions are installed silently).

Example value:

hosted_app</string><string id="ExtensionAllowedTypesDesc">Configure allowed extension types</string><string id="ExtensionSettings">Configure extension management settings</string><string id="ExtensionSettings_Explain">Setting this policy controls extension management settings for Microsoft Edge, including any controlled by existing extension-related policies. This policy supersedes any legacy policies that might be set.

This policy maps an extension ID or an update URL to its specific setting only. A default configuration can be set for the special ID &quot;*&quot;, which applies to all extensions without a custom configuration in this policy. With an update URL, configuration applies to extensions with the exact update URL stated in the extension manifest. If the 'override_update_url' flag is set to true, the extension is installed and updated using the update URL specified in the 'ExtensionInstallForcelist' (Control which extensions are installed silently) policy or in 'update_url' field in this policy. The flag 'override_update_url' is ignored if the 'update_url' is the Edge Add-ons website update URL. For more details, check out the detailed guide to ExtensionSettings policy available at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2161555.

To block extensions from a particular third party store, you only need to block the update_url for that store. For example, if you want to block extensions from Chrome Web Store, you can use the following JSON.

{&quot;update_url:https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx&quot;:{&quot;installation_mode&quot;:&quot;blocked&quot;}}

Note that you can still use 'ExtensionInstallForcelist' and 'ExtensionInstallAllowlist' (Allow specific extensions to be installed) to allow / force install specific extensions even if the store is blocked using the JSON in the previous example.

Note: For Windows instances not joined to a Microsoft Active Directory domain and macOS instances not managed via MDM or joined to a domain via MCX, forced installation is limited to apps and extensions listed in the Microsoft Edge Add-ons website.

This policy didn't work as expected due to changes in operational requirements. Therefore it's obsolete and should not be used.

Specifies the company logo to use on the new tab page in Microsoft Edge.

The policy should be configured as a string that expresses the logo(s) in JSON format. For example: { &quot;default_logo&quot;: { &quot;url&quot;: &quot;https://www.contoso.com/logo.png&quot;, &quot;hash&quot;: &quot;cd0aa9856147b6c5b4ff2b7dfee5da20aa38253099ef1b4a64aced233c9afe29&quot; }, &quot;light_logo&quot;: { &quot;url&quot;: &quot;https://www.contoso.com/light_logo.png&quot;, &quot;hash&quot;: &quot;517d286edb416bb2625ccfcba9de78296e90da8e32330d4c9c8275c4c1c33737&quot; } }

You configure this policy by specifying the URL from which Microsoft Edge can download the logo and its cryptographic hash (SHA-256), which is used to verify the integrity of the download. The logo must be in PNG or SVG format, and its file size must not exceed 16 MB. The logo is downloaded and cached, and it will be redownloaded whenever the URL or the hash changes. The URL must be accessible without any authentication.

The 'default_logo' is required and will be used when there's no background image. If 'light_logo' is provided, it will be used when the user's new tab page has a background image. We recommend a horizontal logo with a transparent background that is left-aligned and vertically centered. The logo should have a minimum height of 32 pixels and an aspect ratio from 1:1 to 4:1. The 'default_logo' should have proper contrast against a white/black background while the 'light_logo' should have proper contrast against a background image.

If you enable this policy, Microsoft Edge downloads and shows the specified logo(s) on the new tab page. Users can't override or hide the logo(s).

If you disable or don't configure this policy, Microsoft Edge will show no company logo or a Microsoft logo on the new tab page.

This behavior only applies to the &quot;balanced&quot; mode of tracking prevention, and does not impact &quot;basic&quot; or &quot;strict&quot; modes. Your users' tracking prevention level can be configured using the 'TrackingPrevention' (Block tracking of users' web-browsing activity) policy. AdsTransparencyEnabled will only have an effect if 'TrackingPrevention' is set to TrackingPreventionBalanced or is not configured.

If you enable or don't configure this policy, transparency metadata provided by ads will be available to the user when the feature is active.

When the feature is enabled, Tracking Prevention will enable exceptions for the associated ad providers that have met Microsoft's privacy standards.

If you disable this policy, Tracking Prevention will not adjust its behavior even when transparency metadata is provided by ads.</string><string id="AllowDeletingBrowserHistory">Enable deleting browser and download history</string><string id="AllowDeletingBrowserHistory_Explain">Enables deleting browser history and download history and prevents users from changing this setting.

Note that even with this policy is disabled, the browsing and download history aren't guaranteed to be retained: users can edit or delete the history database files directly, and the browser itself may remove (based on expiration period) or archive any or all history items at any time.

If you enable this policy or don't configure it, users can delete the browsing and download history.

If you disable this policy, users can't delete browsing and download history. Disabling this policy will disable history sync and open tab sync.

If you enable this policy, don't enable the 'ClearBrowsingDataOnExit' (Clear browsing data when Microsoft Edge closes) policy, because they both deal with deleting data. If you enable both, the 'ClearBrowsingDataOnExit' policy takes precedence and deletes all data when Microsoft Edge closes, regardless of how this policy is configured.</string><string id="AllowFileSelectionDialogs">Allow file selection dialogs</string><string id="AllowFileSelectionDialogs_Explain">Allow access to local files by letting Microsoft Edge display file selection dialogs.

This policy is obsolete because it was only intended to be a short-term mechanism to give enterprises more time to update their web content if and when it was found to be incompatible with the change to disallow synchronous XHR requests during page dismissal. It doesn't work in Microsoft Edge after version 99.

This policy lets you specify that a page can send synchronous XHR requests during page dismissal.

If you enable this policy, pages can send synchronous XHR requests during page dismissal.

If you enable this policy, a web service is used to generate url and search suggestions for network errors.

If you disable this policy, no calls to the web service are made and a standard error page is shown.

If you don't configure this policy, Microsoft Edge respects the user preference that's set under Services at edge://settings/privacy.
Specifically, there's a **Suggest similar pages when a webpage can't be found** toggle, which the user can switch on or off. Note that if you have enable this policy (AlternateErrorPagesEnabled), the Suggest similar pages when a webpage can't be found setting is turned on, but the user can't change the setting by using the toggle.

This policy will be removed in the future.</string><string id="AudioSandboxEnabled">Allow the audio sandbox to run</string><string id="AudioSandboxEnabled_Explain">This policy controls the audio process sandbox.

If you enable this policy, the audio process will run sandboxed.

If you disable this policy, the audio process will run unsandboxed and the WebRTC audio-processing module will run in the renderer process.
This leaves users open to security risks related to running the audio subsystem unsandboxed.

If you don't configure this policy, the default configuration for the audio sandbox will be used, which might differ based on the platform.

This policy is intended to give enterprises flexibility to disable the audio sandbox if they use security software setups that interfere with the sandbox.</string><string id="AutoImportAtFirstRun">Automatically import another browser's data and settings at first run</string><string id="AutoImportAtFirstRun_Explain">If you enable this policy, all supported datatypes and settings from the specified browser will be silently and automatically imported at first run. During the First Run Experience, the import section will also be skipped.

The browser data from Microsoft Edge Legacy will always be silently migrated at the first run, irrespective of the value of this policy.

If this policy is set to 'FromDefaultBrowser', then the datatypes corresponding to the default browser on the managed device will be imported.

If the browser specified as the value of this policy is not present in the managed device, Microsoft Edge will simply skip the import without any notification to the user.

If you set this policy to 'DisabledAutoImport', the import section of the first-run experience is skipped entirely and Microsoft Edge doesn't import browser data and settings automatically.

If this policy is set to the value of 'FromInternetExplorer', the following datatypes will be imported from Internet Explorer:
1. Favorites or bookmarks
2. Saved passwords
3. Search engines

Note: For more details on what is imported from Google Chrome, please see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2120835

If this policy is set to the value of 'FromSafari', user data is no longer imported into Microsoft Edge. This is due to the way Full Disk Access works on Mac.
On macOS Mojave and above, it's no longer possible to have automated and unattended import of Safari data into Microsoft Edge.

Starting with Microsoft Edge version 83, if this policy is set to the value of 'FromMozillaFirefox', the following datatypes will be imported from Mozilla Firefox:
1. Favorites or bookmarks
2. Saved passwords
3. Addresses and more
4. Browsing History

If you want to restrict specific datatypes from getting imported on the managed devices, you can use this policy with other policies such as 'ImportAutofillFormData' (Allow importing of autofill form data), 'ImportBrowserSettings' (Allow importing of browser settings), 'ImportFavorites' (Allow importing of favorites), and etc.

The trailing separator should not be included when listing the protocol. For example, list &quot;skype&quot; instead of &quot;skype:&quot; or &quot;skype://&quot;.

If you configure this policy, a protocol will only be permitted to launch an external application without prompting by policy if:

- the protocol is listed

- the origin of the site trying to launch the protocol matches one of the origin patterns in that protocol's allowed_origins list.

If either condition is false, the external protocol launch prompt will not be omitted by policy.

If you don't configure this policy, no protocols can launch without a prompt. Users can opt out of prompts on a per-protocol/per-site basis unless the 'ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox' (Show an &quot;Always open&quot; checkbox in external protocol dialog) policy is set to Disabled. This policy has no impact on per-protocol/per-site prompt exemptions set by users.

The origin matching patterns use a similar format to those for the 'URLBlocklist' (Block access to a list of URLs) policy, which are documented at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095322.

However, origin matching patterns for this policy cannot contain &quot;/path&quot; or &quot;@query&quot; elements. Any pattern that does contain a &quot;/path&quot; or &quot;@query&quot; element will be ignored.

To control the availability of sync, use the 'SyncDisabled' (Disable synchronization of data using Microsoft sync services) policy instead.

If you set this policy to 'Disable', make sure that you also set the 'NonRemovableProfileEnabled' (Configure whether a user always has a default profile automatically signed in with their work or school account) policy to disabled because 'NonRemovableProfileEnabled' disables the creation of an automatically signed in browser profile. If both policies are set, Microsoft Edge will use the 'Disable browser sign-in' policy and behave as if 'NonRemovableProfileEnabled' is set to disabled.

If you set this policy to 'Enable', users can sign into the browser. Signing into the browser doesn't mean that sync is turned on by default; the user must separately opt-in to use this feature.

If you set this policy to 'Force', users must sign into a profile to use the browser. By default, this will allow the user to choose whether they want to sync to their account, unless sync is disabled by the domain admin or with the 'SyncDisabled' policy. The default value of 'BrowserGuestModeEnabled' (Enable guest mode) policy is set to false.

If you don't configure this policy users can decide if they want to enable the browser sign-in option and use it as they see fit.

This policy controls which software stack is used to communicate with the DNS server: the operating system DNS client, or Microsoft Edge's built-in DNS client. This policy does not affect which DNS servers are used: if, for example, the operating system is configured to use an enterprise DNS server, that same server would be used by the built-in DNS client. It also does not control if DNS-over-HTTPS is used; Microsoft Edge always uses the built-in resolver for DNS-over-HTTPS requests. Please see the 'DnsOverHttpsMode' (Control the mode of DNS-over-HTTPS) policy for information on controlling DNS-over-HTTPS.

If you enable this policy, the built-in DNS client is used, if it's available.

If you disable this policy, the built-in DNS client is only used when DNS-over-HTTPS is in use.

If you don't configure this policy, the built-in DNS client is enabled by default on macOS and Android (when neither Private DNS nor VPN are enabled).</string><string id="CECPQ2Enabled">CECPQ2 post-quantum key-agreement enabled for TLS</string><string id="CECPQ2Enabled_Explain">If this policy is not configured, or is set to enabled, then Microsoft Edge will follow the default rollout process for CECPQ2, a post-quantum key-agreement algorithm in TLS.

CECPQ2 results in larger TLS messages which, in very rare cases, can trigger bugs in some networking hardware. This policy can be set to False to disable CECPQ2 while networking issues are resolved.

It is currently supported but will become obsolete in a future release.

This policy lets you configure support of CORS non-wildcard request headers.

Microsoft Edge version 97 introduces support for CORS non-wildcard request headers. When a script makes a cross-origin network request via fetch() and XMLHttpRequest with a script-added Authorization header, the header must be explicitly allowed by the Access-Control-Allow-Headers header in the CORS preflight response. &quot;Explicitly&quot; here means that the wild card symbol &quot;*&quot; doesn't cover the Authorization header. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2180022 for more detail.

If you enable or don't configure the policy, Microsoft Edge will support the CORS non-wildcard request headers and behave as previously described.

If you disable this policy, Microsoft Edge will allow the wildcard symbol (&quot;*&quot;) in the Access-Control-Allow-Headers header in the CORS preflight response to cover the Authorization header.

This policy is a temporary workaround for the new CORS non-wildcard request header feature. It's intended to be removed after Microsoft Edge version 103.</string><string id="CertificateTransparencyEnforcementDisabledForCas">Disable Certificate Transparency enforcement for a list of subjectPublicKeyInfo hashes</string><string id="CertificateTransparencyEnforcementDisabledForCas_Explain">Disables enforcement of Certificate Transparency requirements for a list of subjectPublicKeyInfo hashes.

This policy lets you disable Certificate Transparency disclosure requirements for certificate chains that contain certificates with one of the specified subjectPublicKeyInfo hashes. This allows certificates that would otherwise be untrusted because they were not properly publicly disclosed to still be used for Enterprise hosts.

To disable Certificate Transparency enforcement when this policy is set, one of the following sets of conditions must be met:
1. The hash is of the server certificate's subjectPublicKeyInfo.
2. The hash is of a subjectPublicKeyInfo that appears in a CA certificate in the certificate chain, that CA certificate is constrained via the X.509v3 nameConstraints extension, one or more directoryName nameConstraints are present in the permittedSubtrees, and the directoryName contains an organizationName attribute.
3. The hash is of a subjectPublicKeyInfo that appears in a CA certificate in the certificate chain, the CA certificate has one or more organizationName attributes in the certificate Subject, and the server's certificate contains the same number of organizationName attributes, in the same order, and with byte-for-byte identical values.

A subjectPublicKeyInfo hash is specified by concatenating the hash algorithm name, the &quot;/&quot; character, and the Base64 encoding of that hash algorithm applied to the DER-encoded subjectPublicKeyInfo of the specified certificate. This Base64 encoding is the same format as an SPKI Fingerprint, as defined in RFC 7469, Section 2.4. Unrecognized hash algorithms are ignored. The only supported hash algorithm at this time is &quot;sha256&quot;.

If you disable this policy or don't configure it, any certificate that's required to be disclosed via Certificate Transparency will be treated as untrusted if it's not disclosed according to the Certificate Transparency policy.

Example value:

This policy lets you disable Certificate Transparency disclosure requirements for certificate chains that contain certificates with one of the specified subjectPublicKeyInfo hashes. This allows certificates that would otherwise be untrusted because they were not properly publicly disclosed, continue to be used for enterprise hosts.

In order for Certificate Transparency enforcement to be disabled, you must set the hash to a subjectPublicKeyInfo appearing in a CA certificate that is recognized as a legacy certificate authority (CA). A legacy CA is a CA that has been publicly trusted by default by one or more operating systems supported by Microsoft Edge.

You specify a subjectPublicKeyInfo hash by concatenating the hash algorithm name, the &quot;/&quot; character, and the Base64 encoding of that hash algorithm applied to the DER-encoded subjectPublicKeyInfo of the specified certificate. This Base64 encoding is the same format as an SPKI Fingerprint, as defined in RFC 7469, Section 2.4. Unrecognized hash algorithms are ignored. The only supported hash algorithm at this time is &quot;sha256&quot;.

If you don't configure this policy, any certificate that's required to be disclosed via Certificate Transparency will be treated as untrusted if it isn't disclosed according to the Certificate Transparency policy.

This policy lets you not disclose certificates for the hostnames in the specified URLs via Certificate Transparency. This lets you use certificates that would otherwise be untrusted, because they weren't properly publicly disclosed, but it makes it harder to detect mis-issued certificates for those hosts.

Form your URL pattern according to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095322. Because certificates are valid for a given hostname, independent of the scheme, port, or path, only the hostname part of the URL is considered. Wildcard hosts are not supported.

If you don't configure this policy, any certificate that should be disclosed via Certificate Transparency is treated as untrusted if it's not disclosed.

This setting is intended for the scenario where the browser home page should load in Internet Explorer mode, and it is important that is does so on browser first run after IE mode is enabled. If this scenario does not exist, we recommend not enabling this setting because it can negatively impact the performance of loading the home page. The setting only applies when Microsoft Edge does not have a cached Enterprise Mode Site List, such as on browser first run after IE mode is enabled.

This setting works in conjunction with:
'InternetExplorerIntegrationLevel' (Configure Internet Explorer integration) is set to 'IEMode'
and
'InternetExplorerIntegrationSiteList' (Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List) policy where the list has at least one entry.

The timeout behavior of this policy can be configured with the 'NavigationDelayForInitialSiteListDownloadTimeout' (Set a timeout for delay of tab navigation for the Enterprise Mode Site List) policy.

If you set this policy to 'All', when Microsoft Edge does not have a cached version of the Enterprise Mode Site List, tabs delay navigating until the browser has downloaded the site list. Sites configured to open in Internet Explorer mode by the site list will load in Internet Explorer mode, even during the initial navigation of the browser. Sites that cannot possibly be configured to open in Internet Explorer, such as any site with a scheme other than http:, https:, file:, or ftp: do not delay navigating and load immediately in Edge mode.

If you set this policy to 'None' or don't configure it, when Microsoft Edge does not have a cached version of the Enterprise Mode Site List, tabs will navigate immediately, and not wait for the browser to download the Enterprise Mode Site List. Sites configured to open in Internet Explorer mode by the site list will open in Microsoft Edge mode until the browser has finished downloading the Enterprise Mode Site List.

Optional diagnostic data includes data about how you use the browser, websites you visit and crash reports to Microsoft for product and service improvement.

This policy is not supported on Windows 10 devices. To control this data collection on Windows 10, IT admins must use the Windows diagnostic data group policy. This policy will either be 'Allow Telemetry' or 'Allow Diagnostic Data', depending on the version of Windows.

'RequiredData' sends required diagnostic data but turns off optional diagnostic data collection. Microsoft Edge will send required diagnostic data to keep Microsoft Edge secure, up to date and performing as expected.

'OptionalData' sends optional diagnostic data includes data about browser usage, websites that are visited, crash reports sent to Microsoft for product and service improvement.

On Windows 7/macOS, this policy controls sending required and optional data to Microsoft.

If you don't configure this policy or disable it, Microsoft Edge will default to the user's preference.

If you enable this policy, Microsoft Edge uses the provided directory regardless of whether the user has specified the '--disk-cache-dir' flag. To avoid data loss or other unexpected errors, don't configure this policy to a volume's root directory or to a directory used for other purposes, because Microsoft Edge manages its contents.

See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095041 for a list of variables you can use when specifying directories and paths.

If you don't configure this policy, the default cache directory is used, and users can override that default with the '--disk-cache-dir' command line flag.

If you enable this policy, Microsoft Edge uses the provided cache size regardless of whether the user has specified the '--disk-cache-size' flag. The value specified in this policy isn't a hard boundary but rather a suggestion to the caching system; any value below a few megabytes is too small and will be rounded up to a reasonable minimum.

If you set the value of this policy to 0, the default cache size is used, and users can't change it.

If you don't configure this policy, the default size is used, but users can override it with the '--disk-cache-size' flag.

Note: The value specified in this policy is used as a hint to various cache subsystems in the browser.

The &quot;automatic&quot; mode will send DNS-over-HTTPS queries first if a DNS-over-HTTPS server is available and may fallback to sending insecure queries on error.

The &quot;secure&quot; mode will only send DNS-over-HTTPS queries and will fail to resolve on error.

If you don't configure this policy, the browser might send DNS-over-HTTPS requests to a resolver associated with the user's configured system resolver.

These origins won't be silently blocked from launching an external application by anti-flood protection. The trailing separator shouldn't be included when listing the protocol. For example, list &quot;skype&quot; instead of &quot;skype:&quot; or &quot;skype://&quot;.

If you configure this policy, a protocol will only be permitted to bypass being silently blocked by anti-flood protection if:

- the protocol is listed

- the origin of the site trying to launch the protocol matches one of the origin patterns in that protocol's allowed_origins list.

If either condition is false, the external protocol launch may be blocked by anti-flood protection.

If you don't configure this policy, no protocols can bypass being silently blocked.

The origin matching patterns use a similar format to those for the 'URLBlocklist' (Block access to a list of URLs) policy, that are documented at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095322.

However, origin matching patterns for this policy cannot contain &quot;/path&quot; or &quot;@query&quot; elements. Any pattern that does contain a &quot;/path&quot; or &quot;@query&quot; element will be ignored.

This policy doesn't work because conflicting states should be avoided. This policy was used to enable/disable download of the domain actions list, but it didn't always achieve the desired state. The Experimentation and Configuration Service, which handles the download, has its own policy to configure what is downloaded from the service. Use the 'ExperimentationAndConfigurationServiceControl' (Control communication with the Experimentation and Configuration Service) policy instead.

In Microsoft Edge, Domain Actions represent a series of compatibility features that help the browser work correctly on the web.

Microsoft keeps a list of actions to take on certain domains for compatibility reasons. For example, the browser may override the User Agent string on a website if that website is broken due to the new User Agent string on Microsoft Edge. Each of these actions is intended to be temporary while Microsoft tries to resolve the issue with the site owner.

When the browser starts up and then periodically afterwards, the browser will contact the Experimentation and Configuration Service that contains the most up to date list of compatibility actions to perform. This list is saved locally after it is first retrieved so that subsequent requests will only update the list if the server's copy has changed.

If you enable this policy, the list of Domain Actions will continue to be downloaded from the Experimentation and Configuration Service.

When this setting is enabled, Microsoft Edge allows connections secured by SHA-1 signed certificates so long as the the certificate chains to a locally-installed root certificate and is otherwise valid.

Note that this policy depends on the operating system (OS) certificate verification stack allowing SHA-1 signatures. If an OS update changes the OS handling of SHA-1 certificates, this policy might no longer have effect.  Further, this policy is intended as a temporary workaround to give enterprises more time to move away from SHA-1. This policy will be removed in Microsoft Edge 92 releasing in mid 2021.

If you don't set this policy or set it to false, or the SHA-1 certificate chains to a publicly trusted certificate root, then Microsoft Edge won't allow certificates signed by SHA-1.

This lets enterprise administrators block file type extension-based download warnings for files that are associated with a listed domain. For example, if  the &quot;jnlp&quot; extension is associated with &quot;website1.com&quot;, users would not see a warning when downloading &quot;jnlp&quot; files from &quot;website1.com&quot;, but see a download warning when downloading &quot;jnlp&quot; files from &quot;website2.com&quot;.

Files with file type extensions specified for domains identified by this policy will still be subject to non-file type extension-based security warnings such as mixed-content download warnings and Microsoft Defender SmartScreen warnings.

If you disable this policy or don't configure it, file types that trigger extension-based download warnings will show warnings to the user.

If you enable this policy:

* The URL pattern should be formatted according to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095322.
* The file type extension entered must be in lower-cased ASCII. The leading separator should not be included when listing the file type extension, so list &quot;jnlp&quot; should be used instead of &quot;.jnlp&quot;.

Example:

The following example value would prevent file type extension-based download warnings on swf, exe, and jnlp extensions for *.contoso.com domains. It will show the user a file type extension-based download warning on any other domain for exe and jnlp files, but not for swf files.

Note that while the preceding example shows the suppression of file type extension-based download warnings for &quot;swf&quot; files for all domains, applying suppression of such warnings for all domains for any dangerous file type extension is not recommended due to security concerns.

Connections to these ports will fail. This policy allows bypassing that list. The set of ports is defined as a comma-separated list that outgoing connections should be permitted on.

Ports are restricted to prevent Microsoft Edge from being used as a vector to exploit various network vulnerabilities. Setting this policy may expose your network to attacks. This policy is intended as a temporary workaround for error code &quot;ERR_UNSAFE_PORT&quot; while migrating a service running on a blocked port to a standard port (for example port 80 or 443).

Malicious websites can easily detect that this policy is set, and for which ports, then use that information to target attacks.

Each port listed in this policy is labeled with a date that it can be unblocked until. After that date the port will be restricted regardless of if it's specified by the value of this policy.

Leaving the value empty or unset means that all restricted ports will be blocked. Invalid port values set through this policy will be ignored while valid ones will still be applied.

This policy overrides the &quot;--explicitly-allowed-ports&quot; command-line option.

Policy options mapping:

* 554 (554) = port 554 (can be unblocked until 2021/10/15)

Users can't change this setting.

If you configure this policy to 'BingSafeSearchNoRestrictionsMode', SafeSearch in Bing search falls back to the bing.com value.

If you configure this policy to 'BingSafeSearchModerateMode', the moderate setting is used in SafeSearch. The moderate setting filters adult videos and images but not text from search results.

If you configure this policy to 'BingSafeSearchStrictMode', the strict setting in SafeSearch is used. The strict setting filters adult text, images, and videos.

The user will not be prompted to select a certificate for sites on the list defined in 'AutoSelectCertificateForUrls'.</string><string id="ForceEphemeralProfiles">Enable use of ephemeral profiles</string><string id="ForceEphemeralProfiles_Explain">Controls whether user profiles are switched to ephemeral mode. An ephemeral profile is created when a session begins, is deleted when the session ends, and is associated with the user's original profile.

If you enable this policy, profiles run in ephemeral mode. This lets users work from their own devices without saving browsing data to those devices. If you enable this policy as an OS policy (by using GPO on Windows, for example), it applies to every profile on the system.

If you disable this policy or don't configure it, users get their regular profiles when they sign in to the browser.

In ephemeral mode, profile data is saved on disk only for the length of the user session. Features like browser history, extensions and their data, web data like cookies, and web databases aren't saved after the browser is closed. This doesn't prevent a user from manually downloading any data to disk, or from saving pages or printing them. If the user has enabled sync, all data is preserved in their sync accounts just like with regular profiles.

This policy doesn't work because it was only intended to be a short-term mechanism to give enterprises more time to update their web content if it was found to be incompatible with the new default referrer policy.

Microsoft Edge's default referrer policy was strengthened from the value of no-referrer-when-downgrade to the more secure strict-origin-when-cross-origin.

When this enterprise policy is enabled, Microsoft Edge's default referrer policy will be set to its old value of no-referrer-when-downgrade.

This enterprise policy is disabled by default.</string><string id="ForceMajorVersionToMinorPositionInUserAgent">Enable or disable freezing the User-Agent string at major version 99</string><string id="ForceMajorVersionToMinorPositionInUserAgent_Explain">This policy controls whether the User-Agent string major
version should be frozen at 99.

The User-Agent request header lets websites identify the application,
operating system, vendor, and/or version of the requesting user agent.
Some websites make assumptions about how this header is formatted and may
encounter issues with version strings that include three digits in the
major position (for example, 100.0.0.0).

Setting the policy to 'Default' or leaving it unset will default to
browser settings for the User-Agent string major version.
If set to 'ForceEnabled', the User-Agent string will always report the
major version as 99 and include the browser's major version in the minor
position. For example, browser version 101.0.0.0 would send a User-Agent
request header that reports version 99.101.0.0.
If set to 'ForceDisabled', the User-Agent string will not freeze the
major version.

This policy is temporary and will be deprecated in the future. Note that
if this policy and
User-Agent Reduction are
both enabled, the User-Agent version string will always be 99.0.0.0.

Policy options mapping:

* Default (0) = Default to browser settings for User-Agent string version.

* ForceDisabled (1) = The User-Agent string will not freeze the major version.

This policy doesn't work because it was only intended to be a short-term mechanism to give enterprises more time to migrate to 3rd party software that doesn't depend on hooking networking APIs. Proxy servers are recommended over LSPs and Win32 API patching.

This policy forces networking code to run in the browser process.

This policy also prevents the user from turning sync off.

If you don't configure this policy, users will be able to turn sync on or off. If you enable this policy, users will not be able to turn sync off.

For this policy to work as intended,
'BrowserSignin' (Browser sign-in settings) policy must not be configured, or must be set to enabled. If 'BrowserSignin' is set to disabled, then 'ForceSync' (Force synchronization of browser data and do not show the sync consent prompt) will not take affect.

'SyncDisabled' (Disable synchronization of data using Microsoft sync services) must not be configured or must be set to False. If this is set to True, 'ForceSync' will not take affect. If you wish to ensure specific datatypes sync or do not sync, use the 'ForceSyncTypes' (Configure the list of types that are included for synchronization) policy and 'SyncTypesListDisabled' (Configure the list of types that are excluded from synchronization) policy.

0 = Do not automatically start sync and show the sync consent (default)

If you disable or don't set this policy, the browser will use the default behavior of cross-site auth, which as of version 80, will be to scope HTTP server authentication credentials by top-level site. So, if two sites use resources from the same authenticating domain, credentials will need to be provided independently in the context of both sites. Cached proxy credentials will be reused across sites.

If you enable this policy HTTP auth credentials entered in the context of one site will automatically be used in the context of another site.

Enabling this policy leaves sites open to some types of cross-site attacks, and allows users to be tracked across sites even without cookies by adding entries to the HTTP auth cache using credentials embedded in URLs.

This policy is intended to give enterprises depending on the legacy behavior a chance to update their login procedures and will be removed in the future.</string><string id="GoToIntranetSiteForSingleWordEntryInAddressBar">Force direct intranet site navigation instead of searching on single word entries in the Address Bar</string><string id="GoToIntranetSiteForSingleWordEntryInAddressBar_Explain">If you enable this policy, the top auto-suggest result in the address bar suggestion list will navigate to intranet sites if the text entered in the address bar is a single word without punctuation.

Default navigation when typing a single word without punctuation will conduct a navigation to an intranet site matching the entered text.

If you enable this policy, the second auto-suggest result in the address bar suggestion list will conduct a web search exactly as it was entered, provided that this text is a single word without punctuation. The default search provider will be used unless a policy to prevent web search is also enabled.

Two effects of enabling this policy are:

Navigation to sites in response to single word queries that would typically resolve to a history item will no longer happen. Instead, the browser will attempt navigate to internal sites that may not exist in an organization's intranet. This will result in a 404 error.

Popular, single-word search terms will require manual selection of search suggestions to properly conduct a search.</string><string id="HSTSPolicyBypassList">Configure the list of names that will bypass the HSTS policy check</string><string id="HSTSPolicyBypassList_Explain">Setting the policy specifies a list of hostnames that bypass preloaded HSTS upgrades from http to https.

This policy does not prevent HSTS upgrades for servers that have dynamically requested HSTS upgrades using a Strict-Transport-Security response header.

Supplied hostnames must be canonicalized: Any IDNs must be converted to their A-label format, and all ASCII letters must be lowercase. This policy only applies to the specific single-label hostnames specified, not to subdomains of those names.

-On the New Tab Page, the feed type will be set to MSN News and the layout to Inspirational.

-The user will still be automatically signed into Microsoft Edge if the Windows account is of Azure AD or MSA type.

-Sync will not be enabled by default and users will be prompted to choose whether they'd like to sync on browser startup. You can use the 'ForceSync' (Force synchronization of browser data and do not show the sync consent prompt) or the 'SyncDisabled' (Disable synchronization of data using Microsoft sync services) policy to configure sync and the sync consent prompt.

If you disable or don't configure this policy, the First-run experience and the Splash screen will be shown.

Note: The specific configuration options shown to the user in the First Run Experience, can also be managed by using other specific policies.

The user must be signed into Microsoft Edge with a valid work or school account for reports to be sent, and the user's account tenant must match the tenant specified by the policy.

If you configure this policy, Microsoft Edge will send a report to the M365 Admin Center Site Lists app when a navigation appears stuck redirecting back and forth between the Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer engines several times. This usually indicates that redirection to an authentication server is switching engines, which repeatedly fails in a loop. The report will show the URL of the site that is the redirect target, minus any query string or fragment. The user's identity isn't reported.

For this reporting to work correctly, you must have successfully visited the Microsoft Edge Site Lists app in the M365 Admin Center at least once. This activates a per-tenant storage account used to store these reports. Microsoft Edge will still attempt to send reports if this step hasn't been completed. However, the reports will not be stored in the Site Lists app.

When enabling this policy, you must specify your O365 tenant ID. To learn more about finding your O365 tenant ID, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2185668

The policy creates a list of favorites. Each favorite contains the keys &quot;name&quot; and &quot;url,&quot; which hold the favorite's name and its target. You can configure a subfolder by defining a favorites without an &quot;url&quot; key but with an additional &quot;children&quot; key that contains a list of favorites as defined above (some of which may be folders again). Microsoft Edge amends incomplete URLs as if they were submitted via the Address Bar, for example &quot;microsoft.com&quot; becomes &quot;https://microsoft.com/&quot;.

These favorites are placed in a folder that can't be modified by the user (but the user can choose to hide it from the favorites bar). By default the folder name is &quot;Managed favorites&quot; but you can change it by adding to the list of favorites a dictionary containing the key &quot;toplevel_name&quot; with the desired folder name as the value.

Managed favorites are not synced to the user account and can't be modified by extensions.

Starting in Microsoft Edge 83, you can enable search engine discovery with the optional allow_search_engine_discovery parameter. This parameter must be the first item in the list. If allow_search_engine_discovery isn't specified, search engine discovery will be disabled by default. Starting in Microsoft Edge 84, you can set this policy as a recommended policy to allow search provider discovery. You don't need to add the optional allow_search_engine_discovery parameter. Starting in Microsoft Edge 100, setting this policy as a recommended policy will also allow users to manually add new search engines from their Microsoft Edge settings.

If you enable this policy, users can't add, remove, or change any search engine in the list. Users can set their default search engine to any search engine in the list.

If you disable or don't configure this policy, users can modify the search engines list as desired.

If you enable this policy, the BHO will not be installed. If it is already installed it will be uninstalled on the next Microsoft Edge update.

If this policy is not configured or is disabled, the BHO will be installed.

The BHO is required for incompatible site redirection to occur, however whether redirection occurs or not is also controlled by 'RedirectSitesFromInternetExplorerRedirectMode' (Redirect incompatible sites from Internet Explorer to Microsoft Edge).

If you set this policy to 'Disable' ('Prevent redirection', value 0), Internet Explorer will not redirect any traffic to Microsoft Edge.

If you set this policy to 'Sitelist', starting with Microsoft Edge major release 87 , Internet Explorer (IE) will redirect sites that require a modern browser to Microsoft Edge. (Note: The Sitelist setting is 'Redirect sites based on the incompatible sites sitelist', value 1).

When a site is redirected from Internet Explorer to Microsoft Edge, the Internet Explorer tab that started loading the site is closed if it had no prior content. Otherwise, the user is taken to a Microsoft help page that explains why the site was redirected to Microsoft Edge. When Microsoft Edge is launched to load an IE site, an information bar explains that the site works best in a modern browser.

If you want to redirect all navigations, you can configure the Disable Internet Explorer 11 policy, which redirects all navigations from IE11 to Microsoft Edge. It also hides the IE11 app icon from the user after the first launch.

If don't configure this policy:
  - Starting with Microsoft Edge major release 87, you will have the same experience as setting the policy to 'Sitelist': Internet Explorer will redirect sites that require a modern browser to Microsoft Edge.
  - In the future, the default for your organization might change to automatically redirect all navigations. If you don't want automatic redirection, set this policy to 'Disable' or 'Sitelist'.

For more information about this policy see  https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2141715

If you don't configure this policy, Microsoft Edge adds a recycle icon at the far right of the top menu bar to prompt users to restart the browser to apply the update.

If you enable this policy and set it to 'Recommended', a recurring warning prompts users that a restart is recommended. Users can dismiss this warning and defer the restart.

If you set the policy to 'Required', a recurring warning prompts users that the browser will be restarted automatically as soon as a notification period passes. The default period is seven days. You can configure this period with the 'RelaunchNotificationPeriod' (Set the time period for update notifications) policy.

The user's session is restored when the browser restarts.

Policy options mapping:

Over this time period, the user will be repeatedly informed of the need for an update. In Microsoft Edge the app menu changes to indicate that a relaunch is needed once one third of the notification period passes. This notification changes color once two thirds of the notification period passes, and again once the full notification period has passed. The additional notifications enabled by the 'RelaunchNotification' (Notify a user that a browser restart is recommended or required for pending updates) policy follow this same schedule.

If not set, the default period of 604800000 milliseconds (one week) is used.</string><string id="RelaunchWindow">Set the time interval for relaunch</string><string id="RelaunchWindow_Explain">Specifies a target time window for the end of the relaunch notification period.

Users are notified of the need for a browser relaunch or device restart based on the 'RelaunchNotification' (Notify a user that a browser restart is recommended or required for pending updates) and 'RelaunchNotificationPeriod' (Set the time period for update notifications) policy settings. Browsers and devices are forcibly restarted at the end of the notification period when the 'RelaunchNotification' policy is set to 'Required'. This RelaunchWindow policy can be used to defer the end of the notification period so that it falls within a specific time window.

If you don't configure this policy, the default target time window is the whole day (i.e., the end of the notification period is never deferred).

Note: Though the policy can accept multiple items in entries, all but the first item are ignored.

Be aware that if you have enabled this policy (ResolveNavigationErrorsUseWebService), the **Use a web service to help resolve navigation errors** setting is turned on, but the user can't change the setting by using the toggle. If you have disabled this policy, the **Use a web service to help resolve navigation errors** setting is turned off, and the user can't change the setting by using the toggle.</string><string id="RestrictSigninToPattern">Restrict which accounts can be used to sign in to Microsoft Edge</string><string id="RestrictSigninToPattern_Explain">Determines which accounts can be used to sign in to the Microsoft Edge account that's chosen during the Sync opt-in flow.

You can configure this policy to match multiple accounts using a Perl style regular expression for the pattern. If a user tries to sign in to the browser with an account whose username doesn't match this pattern, they are blocked and will get the appropriate error message. Note that pattern matches are case sensitive. For more information about the regular expression rules that are used, refer to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=2133903.

If you don't configure this policy or leave it blank, users can use any account to sign in to Microsoft Edge.

Note that signed-in profiles with a username that doesn't match this pattern will be signed out after this policy is enabled.

The memory used by the tab will be freed and the tab will have to be reloaded when switched to.

If you enable this policy, the browser will start to discard tabs to save memory once the limitation is exceeded. However, there is no guarantee that the browser is always running under the limit. Any value under 1024 will be rounded up to 1024.

If you don't set this policy, the browser will only attempt to save memory when it has detected that the amount of physical memory on its machine is low.</string><string id="TrackingPrevention">Block tracking of users' web-browsing activity</string><string id="TrackingPrevention_Explain">Lets you decide whether to block websites from tracking users' web-browsing activity.

It is currently supported but will become obsolete in a future release.

This policy is deprecated because it's intended to be a short-term mechanism to give enterprises more time to update their web content when it's found to be incompatible with the change to remove the U2F Security Key API. It won't work in Microsoft Edge version 104.

If you enable this policy, the deprecated U2F Security Key API can be used and the deprecation reminder prompt shown for U2F API requests is suppressed.

If you disable this policy or don't configure it, the U2F Security Key API is disabled by default and can only be used by sites that register for and use the U2FSecurityKeyAPI origin trial which ends in Microsoft Edge version 104.</string><string id="URLAllowlist">Define a list of allowed URLs</string><string id="URLAllowlist_Explain">Setting the policy provides access to the listed URLs, as exceptions to 'URLBlocklist' (Block access to a list of URLs).

Format the URL pattern according to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095322.

You can use this policy to open exceptions to restrictive block lists. For example, you can include '*' in the block list to block all requests, and then use this policy to allow access to a limited list of URLs. You can use this policy to open exceptions to certain schemes, subdomains of other domains, ports, or specific paths.

The most specific filter determines if a URL is blocked or allowed. The allowed list takes precedence over the block list.

This policy is limited to 1000 entries; subsequent entries are ignored.

This policy also allows the browser to automatically invoke external applications registered as protocol handlers for protocols like &quot;tel:&quot; or &quot;ssh:&quot;.

If you don't configure this policy, there are no exceptions to the block list in the 'URLBlocklist' policy.

This policy is obsolete because it was intended for short-term adaptation purposes only. It doesn't work in Microsoft Edge after version 93.

When enabled the User-Agent Client Hints feature sends granular request headers that provide information about the user browser (for example, the browser version) and environment (for example, the system architecture).

This is an additive feature, but the new headers may break some websites that restrict the characters that requests may contain.
