Microsoft Edge
Policy overview
Key metadata and intent for this policy.
Supported OS tags: Windows7
DEPRECATED: This policy is deprecated. It is currently supported but will become obsolete in a future release. This policy is deprecated because we are moving to a new policy. It won't work in Microsoft Edge as soon as version 104. The new policy to use is 'EdgeAssetDeliveryServiceEnabled' (Allow features to download assets from the Asset Delivery Service). Lets you enable or disable background updates to the list of available templates for Collections and other features that use templates. Templates are used to extract rich metadata from a webpage when the page is saved to a collection. If you enable this setting or the setting is unconfigured, the list of available templates are downloaded in the background from a Microsoft service every 24 hours. If you disable this setting the list of available templates are downloaded on demand. This type of download might result in small performance penalties for Collections and other features.
