Edge really does sell itself for the users in our enterprise. One gap is themes. We use the ExtensionInstallAllowList policy to control what extensions users are allowed to install. Unfortunately, this also impacts themes, which we don't care to control. Are there any plans to make themes more accessible when you control extensions with an allow list?

Perhaps you could flip it on its head and have an ExtensionInstallDenyList?

Unfortunately, no, there are too many extensions to deny that way. You /could/ use the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-policies#extensionallowedtypes policy to allow only themes to be installed, but that would conflict with your desire to allow some non-theme extensions. I've sent the request for a new theme-specific policy that would trump the extension restriction policies to the proper team. Thanks for a great idea!
