Policy CSP - ADMX_Programs

Tip

This CSP contains ADMX-backed policies which require a special SyncML format to enable or disable. You must specify the data type in the SyncML as <Format>chr</Format>. For details, see Understanding ADMX-backed policies.

The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see CDATA Sections.

If this setting is disabled or not configured, the Set Program Access and Defaults button is available to all users.

This setting doesn't prevent users from using other tools and methods to change program access or defaults.

./User/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_Programs/NoGetPrograms

Prevents users from viewing or installing published programs from the network.

This setting prevents users from accessing the "Get Programs" page from the Programs Control Panel in Category View, Programs and Features in Classic View and the "Install a program from the netowrk" task. The "Get Programs" page lists published programs and provides an easy way to install them.

Published programs are those programs that the system administrator has explicitly made available to the user with a tool such as Windows Installer. Typically, system administrators publish programs to notify users of their availability, to recommend their use, or to enable users to install them without having to search for installation files.

  • If this setting is enabled, users can't view the programs that have been published by the system administrator, and they can't use the "Get Programs" page to install published programs. Enabling this feature doesn't prevent users from installing programs by using other methods. Users will still be able to view and installed assigned (partially installed) programs that are offered on the desktop or on the Start menu.

  • If this setting is disabled or isn't configured, the "Install a program from the network" task to the "Get Programs" page will be available to all users.

Note

If the "Hide Programs Control Panel" setting is enabled, this setting is ignored.
