Policy
Enable the network service sandbox
Microsoft Edge
Policy overview
Key metadata and intent for this policy.
Supported OS tags: Windows7
This policy controls whether or not the network service process runs sandboxed. If this policy is enabled, the network service process runs sandboxed. If this policy is disabled, the network service process runs unsandboxed. This leaves users open to other security risks related to running the network service unsandboxed. If this policy isn't set, the default configuration for the network sandbox will be used. This may vary depending on Microsoft Edge release, currently running field trials, and platform. This policy is intended to give enterprises flexibility to disable the network sandbox if they use third party software that interferes with the network service sandbox.
