Verified with Windows 11 25H2 — updated on July 30, 2026
Supported on: At least Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1
Path in the GPO console
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\App runtime Description
This policy setting lets you turn on Content URI Rules to supplement the static Content URI Rules that were defined as part of the app manifest and apply to all packaged Microsoft Store apps that use the enterpriseAuthentication capability on a computer. If you enable this policy setting, you can define additional Content URI Rules that all packaged Microsoft Store apps that use the enterpriseAuthentication capability on a computer can use. If you disable or don't set this policy setting, packaged Microsoft Store apps will only use the static Content URI Rules.
