Is there a way we can enforce full screen mode for Edge via group policy? I downloaded latest policy template and there is only policy for "Allow full screen mode".

It can be done for IE by enable the policy "Enforce full screen mode".

Thanks.

    Hi @Connect Centre01,

    Is there a way we can enforce full screen mode for Edge via group policy?

    As far as I know, there is no such group policy to force enable kiosk mode. You need to use the corresponding command line, so you can set the Target property of Edge, like this:

    If you have to do this via group policy then I'm afraid it's not possible at the moment. You can send feedback and send your suggestion to relevant team, just press Alt+Shift+I to edit your suggestion and send it. Thank you for your understanding.

    Best regards,

    Xudong Peng

    Hello there,

    If you enable this policy or don't configure it, the user, apps, and extensions with appropriate permissions can enter full screen mode.

    If you disable this policy, users, apps, and extensions can't enter full screen mode.

    Opening Microsoft Edge in kiosk mode using the command line is unavailable when full screen mode is disabled.

    Registry Hive HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_CURRENT_USER

    Registry Path Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge

    Value Name FullscreenAllowed

    Value Type REG_DWORD

    Enabled Value 1

    Disabled Value 0

    Hope this resolves your Query !!
