OBSOLETE: This policy is obsolete and doesn't work after Microsoft Edge 127. This policy is obsolete as of Microsoft Edge version 127. Two new Microsoft Edge Policies took its place. Those policies are CopilotPageContext (Control Copilot access to page contents for AAD profiles) and CopilotCDPPageContext (Control Copilot with Commercial Data Protection access to page contents for AAD profiles). This policy didn't allow for separate control of Copilot and Copilot with Commercial Data Protection. The new policies allow separate control of these versions of Copilot. The new policies also allow admins to force-enable Copilot access to Microsoft Edge page contents by enabling the policy, whereas DiscoverPageContextEnabled only allows force-disabling of Copilot page access. This policy controls Discover access to page contents for AAD profiles. Discover is an extension that hosts Bing Chat. To summarize pages and interact with text selections, it must access the page contents. When enabled, page contents are sent to Bing. This policy doesn't affect MSA profiles. If you enable or don't configure this policy, Discover has access to page contents. If you disable this policy, Discover can't access page contents.
Registry
Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge Value name: DiscoverPageContextEnabled
Enabled: DiscoverPageContextEnabled = 1
Disabled: DiscoverPageContextEnabled = 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.
