Setting the policy to Enabled means if <ph name="CHROME_CLEANUP_NAME">Chrome Cleanup</ph> detects unwanted software, it may, in line with policy set by <ph name="SAFE_BROWSING_EXTENDED_REPORTING_ENABLED_POLICY_NAME">SafeBrowsingExtendedReportingEnabled</ph>, report about the scan to Google. <ph name="CHROME_CLEANUP_NAME">Chrome Cleanup</ph> asks users if they want the cleanup. It sends results to Google.
Setting the policy to Disabled means if <ph name="CHROME_CLEANUP_NAME">Chrome Cleanup</ph> detects unwanted software, it won't report about the scan to Google, regardless of the value of <ph name="SAFE_BROWSING_EXTENDED_REPORTING_ENABLED_POLICY_NAME">SafeBrowsingExtendedReportingEnabled</ph>. <ph name="CHROME_CLEANUP_NAME">Chrome Cleanup</ph> asks users if they want the cleanup. The results aren't reported to Google.
Leaving the policy unset means <ph name="CHROME_CLEANUP_NAME">Chrome Cleanup</ph> may, in line with policy set by <ph name="SAFE_BROWSING_EXTENDED_REPORTING_ENABLED_POLICY_NAME">SafeBrowsingExtendedReportingEnabled</ph>, report about scans for detecting unwanted software to Google. <ph name="CHROME_CLEANUP_NAME">Chrome Cleanup</ph> asks users if they want the cleanup and to share the results with Google to help with future unwanted software detection.
