Since the addition of the “Ad privacy feature” to the Chrome web browser, it has been observed that the application will freeze if specific URLAllowList or URLBlocklist registry keys are utilized to lock down the browser.
To prevent this window from appearing and causing issues, we suggest adding another entry to the “Additional Registry Values” profile section, as per below:
Registry Location: | HKEY_CURRENT_USER |
Registry Key: | SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome |
Value Name: | PrivacySandboxPromptEnabled |
Value Type: | REG_DWORD |
Value Data: | 0 |
