ExternalStorageReadOnly

Treat external storage devices as read-only
Last updated October 8, 2024

Setting the policy to True prevents users from writing to external storage devices. Unless external storage is blocked, if you set ExternalStorageReadOnly to False or leave it unset, users can create and modify files of physically writable, external storage devices. (You can block external storage by setting ExternalStorageDisable to True.)
