Force minimum YouTube Restricted Mode

Setting the policy enforces a minimum Restricted mode on YouTube and prevents users from picking a less restricted mode. If you set it to:

* Strict, Strict Restricted mode on YouTube is always active.

* Moderate, the user may only pick Moderate Restricted mode and Strict Restricted mode on YouTube, but can't turn off Restricted mode.

* Off or if no value is set, Restricted mode on YouTube isn't enforced by Chrome. External policies such as YouTube policies might still enforce Restricted mode.

Supported on: At least Microsoft Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 family
