[!div class = "checklist"]

  • Device

Available in the latest Windows 10 Insider Preview Build. This policy setting controls the installation of ActiveX controls for sites in Trusted zone.

If you enable this policy setting, ActiveX controls are installed according to the settings defined by this policy setting.

If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, ActiveX controls prompt the user before installation.

If the trusted site uses the HTTPS protocol, this policy setting can also control how ActiveX Installer Service responds to certificate errors. By default all HTTPS connections must supply a server certificate that passes all validation criteria. If you are aware that a trusted site has a certificate error but you want to trust it anyway you can select the certificate errors that you want to ignore.

Note

This policy setting applies to all sites in Trusted zones.

Tip

This is an ADMX-backed policy and requires a special SyncML format to enable or disable. For details, see Understanding ADMX-backed policies.

You must specify the data type in the SyncML as <Format>chr</Format>. For an example SyncML, refer to Enabling a policy.

The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see CDATA Sections.
