Description

The Test-AppLockerPolicy cmdlet specifies the AppLocker policy to determine whether a list of files is allowed to run on the local computer for a specified user.

To test AppLocker rules for a nested group, a representative member of the nested group should be specified for the User parameter. For example, a rule that allows the Everyone group to run calc.exe may not appear to apply correctly when the nested Finance group for the User parameter is specified. Instead, a representative member of the Finance group should be specified for the User parameter.

Examples

Example 1: Report if programs are allowed to run

PS C:\> Test-AppLockerPolicy -XMLPolicy C:\Policy.xml -Path c:\windows\system32\calc.exe, C:\windows\system32\notepad.exe -User Everyone

This example reports if calc.exe and notepad.exe will be allowed to run for Everyone under the policy specified by C:\Policy.xml.

Example 2: List executables specified by no policy

PS C:\> Get-ChildItem C:\windows\system32\*.exe | Test-AppLockerPolicy c:\Policy.xml -Filter DeniedByDefault

This example lists the executables under C:\Windows\System32 that everyone will be denied by the policy specified by C:\Policy.xml because there is no explicit rule for the file.

Example 3: List executables specified by no policy to a text file

PS C:\> Get-AppLockerPolicy -Local | Test-AppLockerPolicy -Path C:\Windows\System32\*.exe -User contoso\saradavis -Filter Denied | Format-List -Property | Set-Content (ꞌC:\temp\DeniedFiles.txtꞌ)

This example gets the local AppLocker policy, uses the policy to determine which executables in C:\Windows\System32 that contoso\saradavis is explicitly denied access to run, and then redirects the list to a text file.

Example 4: Lists packages and test against a policy

PS C:\> Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Test-AppLockerPolicy -XmlPolicy .\SamplePolicy.xml

This example lists all the packages installed on this computer, for all the users, and tests them against a saved policy.
