Chromium Policy on Windows

[martyno....@gmail.com]

Hello everyone, I've migrated from Electron to nw.js due to a bug. So far it works really well and I even have better performance for my use case.

I'm running it on Windows and unsuccessfully trying to set Chromium policy (specifically "AllowFileSelectionDialogs" to false). What I've tried:

• Registry entries (Software\Policies\Chromium\*) seems to only affect Chromium browser, but not my nw.js app.
  
• Policy templates
  
• Registry entries (Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\3rdparty\extensions\gihmafigllmhbppdfjnfecimiohcljba\policy\*) as advised in Configuring Apps and Extensions by Policy, even though it seems like this only applies for custom policies.

I couldn't find any resources specific to those policies in nw.js. It would be great if anyone could link me some resource or point me to the right direction.

Thanks

Martynas

Hello,

What are you going to achieve with this policy? There might be change from Chromium in NW.

Regards,

Roger

I'm trying to disable all file selection dialogs using "AllowFileSelectionDialogs" policy.

It should just work in NW. Please file an issue and we'll fix it soon.

So the policies on Windows for nw.js are set the same way as for Chromium and it's just a bug for this specific policy?

Is there a known working policy I can test?

[Roger]

In theory it should work because we don't change the code of this part. That doesn't imply that some policy works or not -- maybe all of them is not working. But it shouldn't be hard to fix.
