Enable Native Window Occlusion

Enables native window occlusion in Microsoft Edge.

If you enable this setting, to reduce CPU and power consumption Microsoft Edge will detect when a window is covered by other windows, and will suspend work painting pixels.

If you disable this setting Microsoft Edge will not detect when a window is covered by other windows.

If this policy is left not set, window hiding detection will be enabled.

Supported on: Microsoft Edge version 84, Windows 7 or later
