[SanitizeOnShutdown (Selective) > Locked] *privacy.history.custom* not set

[htcfreek]

Setting the Locked value for "SanitizeOnShutdown (Selective)" to Enabled should lock the drop-down in the settings ui and the corresponding preference too. If the selective sanitize is enabled the user can't change the drop-down, so it should be disabled to prevent confusion.

The missing/required preference setting ist:

"privacy.history.custom": {
"Value": true,
"Status": "locked"
}

By the way, this preference is blocked in the preferences GPO for stability reasons. For me this makes no sense as there are no stability reasons and there is a menu in the settings ui.

The "stability reeasons" is a generic message that we use for preferences that aren't supported.

Which dropdown are you referring to? The custom settings for history dropdown controls other things.

Exactly this one. The user can select "Never clear" and "Clear all (like private mode)". But the drop-down always switches back to "Custom mode" if a selective sanitize setting is set via policy.

And btw. the settings ui feels a bit confusing here. (See #1038.)
