Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Office 2016 (Machine)\AI\Content Safety\Specific\Rewrite Description
This policy setting disables local content safety of the Rewrite scenario for the computer. For local content safety policy, scenario-specific settings are prioritized over general settings and computer settings are prioritized over user settings. - If this policy setting is enabled, local content safety for the Rewrite scenario is disabled for the computer. - If this policy setting is disabled, local content safety for the Rewrite scenario is enabled for the computer. - If this policy setting is not configured, local content safety for the Rewrite scenario is determined by lower priority policy settings. - If this policy setting is not configured and lower priority policy settings are also not configured, local content safety for the Rewrite scenario is enabled for the computer. For this policy setting, the order of priority is: 1. Disable local content safety to and from the Rewrite scenario for the computer. 2. Disable local content safety in general for the computer. 3. Disable local content safety to and from the Rewrite scenario for the user. 4. Disable local content safety in general for the user.
