This policy setting allows you to specify a requested or desired XAdES level in creating a digital signature.
If you enable this policy setting, you may specify the XAdES level in creating a digital signature. If the desired XAdES level is not reached, the last highest XAdES level reached is used if the level is higher than the minimum XAdES level (XAdeES-BES).

- XAdES-X: Will fall back to XAdES-C if minimum XAdES level < XAdes-X
- XAdES-X-L: Will fall back to XAdES-X if minimum XAdES level < XAdes-X-L
