Value name: AutoplayAllowed

Enabled: AutoplayAllowed = 1

Disabled: AutoplayAllowed = 0

Description

Setting the policy to True lets Google Chrome autoplay media. Setting the policy to False stops Google Chrome from autoplaying media. If this policy is left unset, Google Chrome doesn't autoplay media. But, for certain URL patterns, you can use the AutoplayAllowlist policy to change this setting. If this policy changes while Google Chrome is running, it only applies to newly opened tabs.
