This topic describes how to maintain rules within AppLocker policies.
Common AppLocker maintenance scenarios include:
- A new app is deployed, and you need to update an AppLocker policy.
- A new version of an app is deployed, and you need to either update an AppLocker policy or create a new rule to update the policy.
- An app is no longer supported by your organization, so you need to prevent it from being used.
- An app appears to be blocked but should be allowed.
- An app appears to be allowed but should be blocked.
- A single user or small subset of users needs to use a specific app that is blocked.
There are three methods you can use to maintain AppLocker policies:
Maintaining AppLocker policies by using Mobile Device Management (MDM)
Using the AppLocker configuration service provider, you can select which apps are allowed or blocked from running. Using the CSP, you can configure app restrictions based on grouping (such as EXE, MSI, DLL, Store apps and more) and then chose how to enforce different policies for different apps.
For more information, see the AppLocker CSP.
Maintaining AppLocker policies by using Group Policy
For every scenario, the steps to maintain an AppLocker policy distributed by Group Policy include the following tasks. Compress 1 0 1 – image compression.
As new apps are deployed or existing apps are removed by your organization or updated by the software publisher, you might need to make revisions to your rules and update the Group Policy Object (GPO) to ensure that your policy is current.
You can edit an AppLocker policy by adding, changing, or removing rules. However, you cannot specify a version for the AppLocker policy by importing additional rules. To ensure version control when modifying an AppLocker policy, use Group Policy management software that allows you to createversions of GPOs.
Caution: You should not edit an AppLocker rule collection while it is being enforced in Group Policy. Because AppLocker controls what files are allowed to run, making changes to a live policy can create unexpected behavior.
Step 1: Understand the current behavior of the policy
Before modifying a policy, evaluate how the policy is currently implemented. For example, if a new version of the application is deployed, you can use Test-AppLockerPolicy to verify the effectiveness of your current policy for that app.
Step 2: Export the AppLocker policy from the GPO
Updating an AppLocker policy that is currently enforced in your production environment can have unintended results. Therefore, export the policy from the GPO and update the rule or rules by using AppLocker on your AppLocker reference or test computer. To prepare an AppLocker policy for modification, see Export an AppLocker policy from a GPO.
Step 3: Update the AppLocker policy by editing the appropriate AppLocker rule
After the AppLocker policy has been exported from the GPO into the AppLocker reference or test computer, or has been accessed on the local computer, the specific rules can be modified as required.
To modify AppLocker rules, see the following:
- Merge AppLocker policies by using Set-ApplockerPolicy or Merge AppLocker policies manually
Step 4: Test the AppLocker policy
You should test each collection of rules to ensure that the rules perform as intended. (Because AppLocker rules are inherited from linked GPOs, you should deploy all rules for simultaneous testing in all test GPOs.) For steps to perform this testing, see Test and update an AppLocker policy.
Step 5: Import the AppLocker policy into the GPO
After testing, import the AppLocker policy back into the GPO for implementation. To update the GPO with a modified AppLocker policy, see Import an AppLocker policy into a GPO.
Step 6: Monitor the resulting policy behavior
After deploying a policy, evaluate the policy's effectiveness.

Maintaining AppLocker policies by using the Local Security Policy snap-in
For every scenario, the steps to maintain an AppLocker policy by using the Local Group Policy Editor or the Local Security Policy snap-in include the following tasks.
Step 1: Understand the current behavior of the policy
Before modifying a policy, evaluate how the policy is currently implemented.
Step 2: Update the AppLocker policy by modifying the appropriate AppLocker rule
Rules are grouped into a collection, which can have the policy enforcement setting applied to it. By default, AppLocker rules do not allow users to open or run any files that are not specifically allowed.
To modify AppLocker rules, see the appropriate topic listed on Administer AppLocker.
Step 3: Test the AppLocker policy
You should test each collection of rules to ensure that the rules perform as intended. For steps to perform this testing, see Test and update an AppLocker policy.
Step 4: Deploy the policy with the modified rule
You can export and then import AppLocker policies to deploy the policy to other computers running Windows 8 or later. To perform this task, see Export an AppLocker policy to an XML file and Import an AppLocker policy from another computer.
Step 5: Monitor the resulting policy behavior
After deploying a policy, evaluate the policy's effectiveness.
