Applies To: Windows 8.Applies To: Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8 This topic provides links to specific procedures to use when administering AppLocker policies and rules in those operating system versions designated in the Applies To list at the beginning of this topic.ĪppLocker helps administrators control how users can access and use files, such as executable files, packaged apps, scripts, Windows Installer files, and DLLs. Using AppLocker, you can:ĭefine rules based on file attributes derived from the digital signature, including the publisher, product name, file name, and file version. For example, you can create rules based on the publisher attribute that is persistent through updates, or you can create rules for a specific version of a file.Īssign a rule to a security group or an individual user.Ĭreate exceptions to rules. For example, you can create a rule that allows all Windows processes to run except Registry Editor (Regedit.exe). Use audit-only mode to deploy the policy and understand its impact before enforcing it. The import and export affects the entire policy. For example, if you export a policy, all of the rules from all of the rule collections are exported, including the enforcement settings for the rule collections. If you import a policy, the existing policy is overwritten.
