Restricting the task usage scope

To restrict the scope of the Rule Generator for Applications Launch Control task:

1. Open the Properties:Rule Generator for Applications Launch Control window.
2. Select how to create allowing rules:
   • Create allowing rules based on running applications
     

     This check either box enables or disables generation of Applications Launch Control rules for applications that are already running. This option is recommended if the protected device has a reference set of applications based on which you want to create allowing rules.

     If this check box is selected, allowing rules for Applications Launch Control are generated based on running applications.

     If this check box is cleared, running applications are not taken into account when generating allowing rules.

     By default, the check box is cleared.

     This check box cannot be cleared if none of the folders are selected in the Create allowing rules for applications from the folders table.

   • Create allowing rules for applications from the folders
     

     You can use the table to select or specify folders for the task and the types of executable files to be taken into account when creating Applications Launch Control rules. The task will generate allowing rules for files of the selected types that are located in the specified folders.

3. Click the OK button.

The specified settings are saved.
