    Hello

    Good day!

    What is the suffix for a Zoom app file?

    Are you sure the Zoom app file is in your current path (download\full folder)?

    It is exe

    you can ignore the path, i just wanted to show you i can't select exe.

    Hello

    Good day!

    Do you mean if you put .exe file in your current path (download\full folder), you still cannot select it?

    If so, what you are setting only applies .msi file.

    HI Daisy,

    i can see there are two ways to select the specified application. one is from the list, another is i manual go to the path to select it.

    for zoom, i can't find it from this two ways.

    my query is that i installed zoom application from MSI package, after the installation finished the application is exe, so means we should check the suffix from final application is MSI or not?

    further, if i set the policy from “Local Security Policy editor”, i can select exe suffix, may i know if “Local Security Policy editor” way can work?

    A: Why do not you select MSI package directly?

    further, if i set the policy from “Local Security Policy editor”, i can select exe suffix, may i know if “Local Security Policy editor” way can work?

    A: You can use local group policy, but you need to set it on every machine one by one.
