Path in the GPO console
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge Description
The 'SitePerProcess' policy can be used to prevent users from opting out of the default behavior of isolating all sites. You can also use the 'IsolateOrigins' (Enable site isolation for specific origins) policy to isolate additional, finer-grained origins. If you enable this policy, users can't opt out of the default behavior where each site runs in its own process. If you disable or don't configure this policy, a user can opt out of site isolation. (For example, by using "Disable site isolation" entry in edge://flags.) Disabling the policy or not configuring the policy doesn't turn off Site Isolation.
Registry
Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge Value name: SitePerProcess
Enabled: SitePerProcess = 1
Disabled: SitePerProcess = 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.
