Description
Setting the policy to Enabled disallows screenshots taken with keyboard shortcuts
or extension APIs. Setting the policy to Disabled or not set allows screenshots.
As of Google Chrome version 154, enabling this policy also prevents extensions from attaching the debugger via 'chrome.debugger.attach()'.
Note that on Microsoft® Windows®, macOS and Linux,
this does not prevent screenshots that are taken with operating system or third party applications.
