Computer and userNeeds changes for IntuneIESF_NPLRest_TrustedSitesZone

Supported on At least Internet Explorer 6.0 in Windows XP with Service Pack 2 or Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1

25H2 · 1.0

What it does

For each zone, the Network Protocol Lockdown security restriction may be configured to prevent active content obtained through restricted protocols from running in an unsafe manner, either by prompting the user, or simply disabling the content. For each zone, this list of protocols may be configured here, and applies to all processes which have opted in to the security restriction. If you enable this policy setting for a zone, this sets the list of protocols to be restricted if that zone is set to Prompt or Disable for "Allow active content over restricted protocols to access my computer." If you disable or do not configure this policy setting for a zone, no protocols are restricted for that zone, regardless of the setting for "Allow active content over restricted protocols to access my computer." Note. If policy for a zone is set in both Computer Configuration and User Configuration, both lists of protocols will be restricted for that zone.

What it writes

Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Registry key: SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\RestrictedProtocols
Value name: ListBox_Support_2
When enabled: DWORD 1
When disabled: DWORD 0

Why it needs changes for Intune

Policy references a Windows supportedOn definition.

In Intune

No native CSP; import the ADMX (needs changes first).

From Microsoft's Policy CSP DDF files (DDF v2 Files, February 2026), read 18 Oct 2026.

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: IESF_NPLRestrictionsList
