You work as an administrator at Contoso.com. The Contoso.com network consists of a single domain
named Contoso.com. All servers in the Contoso.com domain, including domain controllers, have
Windows Server 2012 R2 installed.
You have been instructed to make sure that Contoso.com users are not able to install a Windows
Store application. You then create a rule for packaged apps.
Which of the following is the rule based on? (Choose all that apply.)
A.
The publisher of the package.
B.
The publisher of the application.
C.
The name of the package
D.
The name of the application
E.
The package version.
F.
The application version.
Explanation:
Packaged apps (also known as Windows 8 apps) are new to Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows
8.
They are based on the new app model that ensures that all the files within an app package share the
same identity. Therefore, it is possible to control the entire application using a single AppLocker rule
as opposed to the non-packaged apps where each file within the app could have a unique identity.
Windows does not support unsigned packaged apps which implies all packaged apps must be signed.
AppLocker supports only publisher rules for Packaged apps.
A publisher rule for a Packaged app is based on the following information:
Publisher of the package
Package name
Package version
All the files within a package as well as the package installer share these attributes. Therefore, an
AppLocker rule for a Packaged app controls both the installation as well as the running of the app.
Otherwise, the publisher rules for Packaged apps are no different than the rest of the rule
collections; they support exceptions, can be increased or decreased in scope, and can be assigned to
users and groups.
Why E? If you disable the posibillity completely to install a App, why would version be relevant? You block it by name and publisher. Some of these questions are either confusing or poorly written.

I agree, the question states an application, which implies any version. E should be wrong here.

Answer is correct, even E. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh994588.aspx

Consider the difference in “normal application” and “store packages”. So any answer listed as package is what you should be looking for; not the standard windows applications.
