Description

This policy allows you to specify a list of URL patterns for which background web content is forced to run at foreground priority. If the ForceForegroundPriorityForAllTabs policy is enabled, this policy is ignored because all tabs are already forced to run at foreground priority. If the ForceForegroundPriorityForAllTabs policy is disabled or not configured, only background content that matches the URL patterns in this list is forced to run at foreground priority. For more information about valid URL patterns, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095322. If you don’t configure this policy or the list is empty, no background content is forced to run at foreground priority. Example value: https://www.example.com/path?query=val example.edu https://example.com:8080 *://example.org:*/
