In Chrome and Chromium there is a way to set custom polices for an extension using a registry entry like the following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\3rdparty\extensions\<extensionID>\policy and you can view that it was loaded correctly by going to chrome://policy.

Is there a way to do this in ms-Edge Chromium? and if yes how can I see it in the interface that the policies are being loaded correctly.

    Hi @Phillip Ryan

    There's no same policy in Edge. All the policies related to extension in Edge are listed here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#extensions. You can refer to the doc.

    To review if policies are loaded correctly, you can go to edge://policy in Edge.
