What it does

OBSOLETE: This policy is obsolete and doesn't work after Microsoft Edge 92. This policy is obsolete because the new version of the enterprise new tab page no longer requires choosing between different content types. Instead, the content that's presented to the user can be controlled via the Microsoft 365 admin center. To get to the Microsoft 365 admin center, sign in at https://admin.microsoft.com with your admin account. Lets you choose either the Microsoft News or Office 365 feed experience for the new tab page. If you set this policy to 'News', users see the Microsoft News feed experience on the new tab page. If you set this policy to 'Office', users with an Azure Active Directory browser sign-in see the Office 365 feed experience on the new tab page. If you disable or don't configure this policy, users with an Azure Active Directory browser sign-in are offered the Office 365 new tab page feed experience, and the standard new tab page feed experience. Users without an Azure Active Directory browser sign-in to see the standard new tab page experience. If you enable this policy *and* the 'NewTabPageLocation' (Configure the new tab page URL) policy, 'NewTabPageLocation' has precedence. Policy options mapping: * News (0) = Microsoft News feed experience * Office (1) = Office 365 feed experience Use the preceding information when configuring this policy.

The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
The generated payload is incomplete because one or more ADMX element values were not supplied: NewTabPageSetFeedType
