How to Enable or Disable Microsoft Edge Browser Themes using DALL-E in Intune

Using an Intune policy, let’s learn How to set Microsoft Edge browser themes using DALL-E in Intune Settings Catalog Policy. The present article aims to elucidate the process of setting a Microsoft Edge browser themes using DALL-E and deploying the configuration profiles to the Security group.

Microsoft Intune offers numerous policies designed to facilitate its management and security. Using Intune for policy management is similar to using Active Directory Group Policy or configuring local Group Policy Object (GPO) settings on user devices.

Microsoft made many improvements to Intune settings catalog policies. The policies avoid any parity issue between Intune and Windows 10 CSP policy support. In the past, there was a big parity issue between Windows MDM-supported and Intune-supported CSP policies.

Microsoft Edge settings are included in the Settings Catalog and Intune Administrative Templates (ADMX). We used to create a custom OMA-URI device configuration policy to configure Microsoft Edge settings on Windows devices. HoweverAdministrative Templates are now built into Intune and don’t require any customizations, including OMA-URI.
