an operating system that supports AppLocker.
AppLocker policies in the GPO are applied, and they supersede the policies generated by SRP in the
GPO and local AppLocker policies or policies generated by SRP.

  1. Andreas says:

    Failed this question due to sloppy wording on “Applocker”. Since GPO takes precense over LGPO, and computer is now in the domain the only answer should be gpupdate, which is rediculus.

    B seems the correct answer. TechNet article below It is recommended that you author AppLocker and SRP rules in separate GPOs and target the GPO with SRP policies to systems running Windows Vista or earlier. When both SRP and AppLocker policies are applied to computers running Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 and later, the SRP policies are ignored.

    Use AppLocker and Software Restriction Policies in the Same Domain

    This topic for the IT professional describes concepts and procedures to help you manage your application control strategy using Software Restriction Policies and AppLocker.
    Using AppLocker and Software Restriction Policies in the same domain

    ——————————————————————————–

    AppLocker is supported on systems running Windows 7 and above. Software Restriction Policies (SRP) is supported on systems running Windows Vista or earlier. You can continue to use SRP for application control on your pre-Windows 7 computers, but use AppLocker for computers running Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 and later. It is recommended that you author AppLocker and SRP rules in separate GPOs and target the GPO with SRP policies to systems running Windows Vista or earlier. When both SRP and AppLocker policies are applied to computers running Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 and later, the SRP policies are ignored.

    The following table compares the features and functions of Software Restriction Policies (SRP) and AppLocker.

    B definitely…

    When an SRP and an Application Control policy are applied to a computer, the SRP is ignored. In this case, the Application Control policy is configured by local group policy, so the SRP is ignored. To remedy this, link a GPO that configures an Application Control policy to the domain so that the settings configured here (block App1) override the locally configured settings. This is due to the order in which policies are applied – the domain GPO being applied later than the local policy, hence it’s settings effectively “overwrite” those set locally.

    How is B possible? the workgroup computer is NOT a domain member, so it will not be managed by the GPO, no matter which rule we set.
    So the solution is local on we workstation, D.
