If this policy is set to "ShareAllowed" (the default), users will be able to access the Windows 10 Share experience from the Settings and More menu in Microsoft Edge to share with other apps on the system. If this policy is set to "ShareDisallowed", users will not be able to access the Windows 10 Share experience. If the Share button is on the toolbar, it will also be hidden. Policy options mapping: - ShareAllowed (0) = Allow using the Share experience. - ShareDisallowed (1) = Do not allow using the Share experience.
