Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge Description
OBSOLETE: This policy is obsolete and doesn't work after Microsoft Edge 115. Starting in Microsoft Edge version 109, the nonstandard API Event.path is removed to improve web compatibility. This policy re-enables the API until version 115. If you enable this policy, the Event.path API is available. If you disable this policy, the Event.path API is unavailable. If you don't configure this policy, the Event.path API is in the following default states: available before version 109, and unavailable in version 109 to version 114. This policy is made obsolete after Microsoft Edge version 115.

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.
