QuestionQ42

Manage Chrome browser settings and policies

A systems engineer recently enrolled Chrome browsers in the cloud; the browsers had previously been managed through Group Policy. The engineer deployed a policy through Chrome Enterprise Core, but the policy is not being applied. After validating it in chrome://policy, its status displays a conflict warning.

What is the best way to resolve this issue?

  • A Restart the computer to apply the policy changes
  • B Adjust the policy merge list setting
  • C Check and configure the precedence order
  • D Re-enroll the Chrome browser to reset the policy
Explanation

Chrome platform policies delivered through Group Policy have higher default precedence than machine cloud policies from Chrome Enterprise Core. Configuring the policy precedence order allows the cloud policy to override the legacy platform policy. Policy merging is limited to supported list and dictionary policies and is not the general remedy for this precedence conflict.
