This article for IT professionals describes how to set AppLocker policies to Audit only within your IT environment by using AppLocker.

After AppLocker rules are created within the rule collection, you can configure the enforcement mode setting to Enforce rules or Audit only.

When AppLocker policy enforcement mode is set to Enforce rules, rules are enforced for the rule collection and all events are logged to the AppLocker event logs for that rule collection. When AppLocker policy enforcement mode is set to Audit only, rules are only evaluated but all events generated from that evaluation are written to the AppLocker event logs.

To manage an AppLocker policy in a Group Policy Object (GPO), you can perform this task by using the Group Policy Management Console. To manage an AppLocker policy for the local computer or for use in a security template, use the Local Security Policy snap-in. For info how to use these MMC snap-ins to administer AppLocker, see Administer AppLocker.

To audit rule collections

1. From the AppLocker console, right-click AppLocker, and then select Properties.
2. On the Enforcement tab, select the Configured check box for the rule collection that you want to enforce, and then verify that Audit only is selected in the list for that rule collection.
3. Repeat the above step to configure the enforcement setting to Audit only for other rule collections.
4. Select OK.
