This CSP contains ADMX-backed policies which require a special SyncML format to enable or disable. You must specify the data type in the SyncML as <Format>chr</Format>. For details, see Understanding ADMX-backed policies.
The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see CDATA Sections.

This policy setting allows you to control displaying or tracking items in Jump Lists from remote locations.
The Start Menu and Taskbar display Jump Lists off of programs. These menus include files, folders, websites and other relevant items for that program. This helps users more easily reopen their most important documents and other tasks.
If you enable this policy setting, the Start Menu and Taskbar only track the files that the user opens locally on this computer. Files that the user opens over the network from remote computers aren't tracked or shown in the Jump Lists. Use this setting to reduce network traffic, particularly over slow network connections.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, all files that the user opens appear in the menus, including files located remotely on another computer.
Nota
This setting doesn't prevent Windows from displaying remote files that the user has explicitly pinned to the Jump Lists. See the "Do not allow pinning items in Jump Lists" policy setting.

Power Apps model-driven apps implement a consistent user experience. A key component of that experience is how users are presented and can interact with available commands. As part of designing the model-driven app, a maker can customize the bars to add commands, hide commands and modify their behavior. This learning path introduces you to how to customize the command bar. We also cover common scenarios and advanced concepts.
