Description

Specifies whether the user can open pages in InPrivate mode in Microsoft Edge.

If you don't configure this policy or set it to 'Enabled', users can open pages in InPrivate mode.

Set this policy to 'Disabled' to stop users from using InPrivate mode.

Set this policy to 'Forced' to always use InPrivate mode.

The 'InPrivateModeUrlAllowlist' (Allow access to a list of URLs in InPrivate mode.) policy takes precedence over this policy and can allow specific URLs to open in InPrivate mode.

If this policy disables InPrivate mode and an allowlist is configured, InPrivate mode is permitted only for URLs that match entries in the allowlist. All other URLs are blocked from opening in InPrivate mode.

Policy options mapping:

* Enabled (0) = InPrivate mode available

* Disabled (1) = InPrivate mode disabled

* Forced (2) = InPrivate mode forced

Use the preceding information when configuring this policy.
