Allow Same Origin Tab capture by these origins
Verified with Microsoft Edge 152.0.4191.53 — updated on July 10, 2026
Supported on: Microsoft Edge version 97, Windows 7 or later
Path in the GPO console
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge\Permit or deny screen capture User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge\Permit or deny screen capture Description
Setting the policy lets you set a list of URL patterns that can capture tabs with their same Origin. Leaving the policy unset means that sites won't be considered for an override at this scope of capture. If a site matches a URL pattern in this policy, the following policies won't be considered: 'TabCaptureAllowedByOrigins' (Allow Tab capture by these origins), 'WindowCaptureAllowedByOrigins' (Allow Window and Tab capture by these origins), 'ScreenCaptureAllowedByOrigins' (Allow Desktop, Window, and Tab capture by these origins), 'ScreenCaptureAllowed' (Allow or deny screen capture). For detailed information on valid url patterns, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095322. This policy only matches based on origin, so any path in the URL pattern is ignored. Example value: https://www.example.com [*.]example.edu

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.
