Click to Do lets people take action on content on their screens. When activated, it takes a screenshot of their screen and analyzes it to present actions. Click to Do ends when they exit it, and it can't take screenshots while closed. Screenshot analysis is always performed locally on their device. By default, Click to Do is enabled for users. This policy setting allows you to determine whether Click to Do is available for users on their device. When the policy is enabled, the Click to Do component and entry points will not be available to users. When the policy is disabled, users will have Click to Do available on their device.

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.
