An Extension was added via GPO, and we would like to enable the two settings / make the extension removable

Hi supporting teams / volunteers,

A Microsoft Purview extension was added via GPO previously, and we would like to enable the two settings (indicated with red box), may I know if anyone might have clues on that please? Also, would like to also check if we could remove the extension from users' end, since it said "can't be removed". Many thanks.

Best regards, Vincent

We do not currently have a way to set those two values via policy.

As far as the removal goes, I don't understand the question.

It sounds like the was explicitly installed with force_installed, so the user can't remove it.

The only other option is normal_installed which allows the user to disable the extension.

Hi Mike, thank you for your reply!

Since this firefox browser is installed in a organization-managed laptop - may I check if the plugin could be removed, or the settings of the plugin could be customized, by GPO policy managed by the organization?

Thanks, Vincent

As I said, those values can't be set via policy.

And if the extension is installed via policy, it can't be removed.
