Enable AI Gen Themes in Edge Browser using Microsoft 365 Admin Center Configuration Policy

Let’s discuss how to enable AI Gen Themes in Edge Browser using the Microsoft 365 Admin Center Configuration Policy. The AIGenThemesEnabled policy empowers users to personalize their browser experience in Edge through AI-generated themes. It gives administrators control over the availability of this feature.

You can simplify the management of Microsoft Edge policies by creating a configuration profile, allowing you to control settings from a single location conveniently. Microsoft Edge policies can also be deployed directly from the Microsoft Intune Management platform using settings catalog policies, making it easier to manage and apply configurations across multiple devices in your organization.

You can quickly enable the Additional Search Box in the Edge browser through the Microsoft 365 Admin Center Policy. The AdditionalSearchBoxEnabled feature in Microsoft Edge provides users with an extra search box next to the address bar, making it easier for those who prefer a dedicated search tool instead of using the main address bar for searches.

The AIGenThemesEnabled policy allows for the generation of DALL-E themes in Microsoft Edge. Its configurations can be managed through Group Policy in Windows and configuration profiles in macOS. The settings can be stored in the Windows Registry or specified in XML for macOS, providing flexibility in how organizations manage browser themes across different operating systems.
