I'm trying to enable AppLocker on Windows 10 Enterprise.
I have AppID
and AppIDSVC
enabled and set to automatic start, and everything looks good. However, when I start inserting policy rules into AppLocker (specifically, .dll rules), I get the following error in Event Viewer:
AppID policy conversion failed. Status Access is denied
User: SYSTEM
That's basically all the info I get.
Why is it trying to convert the policy? Where is this policy? How do I give the system access?
If I ignore this error (which is not a good idea unless you're working on a clean machine with recent restore points) and I continue to configure AppLocker, it works for that session. When I reboot, after the BIOS loads, the OS does not, I get a grey screen and need to restore.
This is obviously not good, and I have been working around the clock trying to fix it. I have found nothing that helps on the internet thus far, so insight or advice would be greatly appreciated.
