This topic describes the supported scenarios for the Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) policy Wizard. The Wizard was built to provide security architects, security administrators, and system administrators with a more user-friendly means to create, edit and merge application control policies using a GUI desktop application. The Wizard uses the [ConfigCI PowerShell Cmdlets](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/configci/?view=win10-ps) in the background so the output policy of the Wizard and PowerShell cmdlets are identical.
