Description

This policy controls the dynamic code settings for Microsoft Edge.

Disabling dynamic code improves the security of Microsoft Edge by preventing potentially hostile dynamic code and third-party code from making changes to Microsoft Edge's behavior. However this might cause compatibility issues with third-party software (e.g. certain printer drivers) that must run in the browser process.

If you set this policy to 0 (the default) or leave unset, then Microsoft Edge will use the default settings.

If you set this policy to 1 – (EnabledForBrowser) then the Microsoft Edge browser process is prevented from creating dynamic code.

Policy options mapping:

• Default (0) = Default dynamic code settings

• EnabledForBrowser (1) = Prevent the browser process from creating dynamic code

Use the preceding information when configuring this policy.
