Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Google\Google Chrome - Default Settings (users can override) User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Google\Google Chrome - Default Settings (users can override) Description
Enables origin-keyed process isolation for most pages (i.e., those assigned to an origin-keyed agent cluster by default). This improves security but also increases the number of processes created. Users are allowed to override the set policy value via the command-line flags or chrome://flags (both to turn this feature on or off). Setting the policy to Enabled results in most origins being isolated, even from other origins in the same site. See also the IsolateOrigins and SitePerProcess policies. Setting the policy to Disabled results in no origins being isolated from the rest of their site unless an origin explicitly asks to. Not setting the policy results in the browser determining which origins to isolate and when to isolate them.
Registry
Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\Recommended Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\Recommended Value name: OriginKeyedProcessesEnabled
Enabled: OriginKeyedProcessesEnabled = 1
Disabled: OriginKeyedProcessesEnabled = 0
Export Builder
BETAConfigure the state, scope and options, then generate .reg, PowerShell, Intune and SCCM outputs — or add the setting to a multi-setting collection.
These exports write the registry — this is not a managed GPO. ⓘ
Applying both scopes creates an ambiguous configuration (computer takes precedence over user). Only do this intentionally.
