Changing AppLocker restrictions when away from network

[smarties11]

Hi All,

 

As the title says really - we have some staff self-isolating, they have laptops with our AppLocker GPO applied. I've set up a new RDWeb server so we can publish some RemoteApps - however in out AppLocker GPO we block mstsc for staff.

 

I can remote control the computer easily enough using Teams, however I wondered if I can locally change the AppLocker GPO any how? We don't have a VPN so I have no way of refreshing the GPO.

 

I know I could stop the services however I still want AppLocker to run :-/

 

Thanks

I'm guessing that AppLocker settings as applied by GPO can be found in the registry somewhere. It'd be worth investigating that and seeing if you can manually manipulate them.

Yeah that's what I was hoping for, or some kind of local GPO cache that can be copied from another machine...

You could install the HTML5 client on the server which doesn't require mstsc

Now that's the kind of solution I like! I'm new to RDWeb and didn't realise there was one. I'll look into this, thank you!
