ApplicationGuardPassiveModeEnabled

Ignore Application Guard site list configuration and browse Edge normally

Supported versions

  • On Windows since 94 or later

Description

Set whether Edge should ignore the Application Guard site list configuration for trusted and untrusted sites.

If you enable this policy, all navigations from Edge, including navigations to untrusted sites, will be accessed normally within Edge without redirecting to the Application Guard container. Note: this policy ONLY impacts Edge, so navigations from other browsers might get redirected to the Application Guard Container if you have the corresponding extensions enabled.

If you disable or don't configure this policy, Edge does not ignore the Application Guard site list. If users try to navigate to an untrusted site in the host, the site will open in the container.
