No, policy templates in Windows, also known as Administrative Templates or ADMX files, are not automatically updated. You need to manually download and install the latest templates when Microsoft releases them. Always ensure to backup your existing templates before updating to prevent any potential issues.
If you only want to update the policies for Chrome and Edge, you can just copy the chrome.admx, edge.admx, and their corresponding adml language files. However, ensure to place the .admx files in the PolicyDefinitions folder and the .adml files in the appropriate language subfolder within the PolicyDefinitions folder. Always backup existing files before replacing them.
As of now, Microsoft Edge's policy templates do not include a direct policy to block explicit content. You can enforce SafeSearch via group policy, but it doesn't block explicit websites if accessed directly. For comprehensive content filtering, consider using additional tools or parental control software. Always ensure to check for updates in policy templates as new features might be added in future releases.
Your feedback is understandable. Microsoft Edge currently doesn't have a direct policy to block explicit content like Chrome does. However, Microsoft is continually updating and improving Edge's features, so this might be included in future updates. Keep an eye on their release notes for any new policy additions.
Yes, you can use Group Policy to set Google as the default search engine and disable the ability to change it, effectively blocking other search engines. However, safeguarding Google Search settings during browser data cleanup might be challenging as clearing browser data usually resets these settings. You could consider using a browser extension or a third-party tool that allows for more granular control over what data gets cleared. Always ensure to check the functionality of such tools and their privacy policies.
To set Google as the default search engine using Group Policy, you need to find the policy "Default search provider" in your browser's policy templates. Enable it, and set "Default search provider name" to Google and "Default search provider search URL" to Google's search URL.
Yes, you're correct. Certain Group Policies, including the one to set a default search provider, are only available on Windows instances that are joined to a Microsoft Active Directory domain, Microsoft Azure Active Directory, or enrolled in Chrome Browser Cloud Management. These policies are designed for enterprise environments where centralized control is needed.
The google.admx file is a policy template for Google Chrome, which allows administrators to manage and enforce browser settings via Group Policy in a Windows Active Directory environment.
For homework and general purposes, which AI is better for kids ages between 13 and 15: Google, Microsoft, or DuckDuckGo's? Does Google, Microsoft, and DuckDuckGo's AI have safeguards for explicit content? I guess Google and Microsoft require signing in, but DuckDuckGo's AI doesn't, right? Does Google still release updates for "Socratic by Google" to keep it complete with new information? Is Socratic by Google safe for kids ages between 13 and 15, i.e., has safeguards for explicit content?
All three AIs - Google, Microsoft, and DuckDuckGo - have their strengths and can be useful for homework and general purposes. Google and Microsoft have more advanced AI and offer personalized results, but require signing in. DuckDuckGo prioritizes privacy and doesn't require sign-in, but its AI might not be as advanced.
Apologies for the confusion earlier. Gemini, Copilot, and Duck are AI models developed by OpenAI. They are not designed with explicit content safeguards as they are primarily used for generating human-like text and assisting in coding.
