Live captions allowed

Allow users to turn the Live captions feature on or off. Live captions is an accessibility feature that converts speech from the audio that plays in Microsoft Edge into text and shows this text in a separate window. The entire process happens on the device and no audio or caption text ever leaves the device. Note: This feature isn't generally available. Clients that have the 'ExperimentationAndConfigurationServiceControl' (Control communication with the Experimentation and Configuration Service) policy set to 'FullMode' receive the feature before broad availability. Broad availability is announced via Microsoft Edge release notes. If you enable or don't configure this policy, users can turn on this feature or turn it off at edge://settings/accessibility. If you disable this policy, users can't turn on this accessibility feature. If speech recognition files were downloaded previously, they will be deleted from the device in 30 days. We recommend avoiding this option unless it's needed in your environment. If users choose to turn on Live captions, speech recognition files (approximately 100 megabytes) are downloaded to the device on first run and then periodically to improve performance and accuracy. These files will be deleted after 30 days.
