Regarding Chrome ADMX policy template with Windows Server 2019 GPO

Question

Hi there,
I download Chrome Policy Template from "https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/187202?hl=en" and add this template into the Windows Server 2019 GPO. I enable the "Allows a page to perform synchronous XHR requests during page dismissal." on Computer Configuration and User Configuration.

My 2* client Windows 10 with the latest Chrome Version and Enterprise version. when the use login to the Domain, my settings of ""Allows a page to perform synchronous XHR requests during page dismissal."" is still "Default" NOT "Enable". Does anyone have been faced this issue before. How should I fix it? Thanks

Answer 1

Hi,
Based on my research , the policy is based on user configuration ,so we need to link the gpo to the container for users.

I configured the setting through GPO:Allows a page to perform synchronous XHR requests during page dismissal
And set it to not configured, enable, and disable then check the results.
I checked the gpresult, the policy was applied.
But no matter how did i set the policy , the image in the following won't be change as you mentioned , as following):

Then i checked the registry:HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Google\ChromeOS
When i set the policy to not configured there is not such a value.
When enabled ,the value for AllowSyncXHRInPageDismissal is 1
When disabled,the value for AllowSyncXHRInPageDismissal is 0



That means the policy worked.Still not sure why not showing the right results in the chrome page.

Hi Fanfan,

As you said, "That means the policy worked. Still not sure why not showing the right results in the chrome page." it's weird.

Hi,
I would suggest you ask advice on the Chrome Community at the same time.
