Important

If you use DLL rules, a DLL allow rule has to be created for each DLL that is used by all of the allowed applications.

Warning

When DLL rules are used, AppLocker must check each DLL that an application loads. Therefore, users may experience a reduction in performance if DLL rules are used.
