## Auto Launch Sample XML

This sample demonstrates that both UWP and Win32 apps can be configured to automatically launch, when assigned access account logs in. One profile can have at most one app configured for auto launch. AutoLaunchArguments are passed to the apps as is and the app needs to handle the arguments explicitly.

## Global Profile Sample XML

Global Profile is supported on:

- Windows 11
- Windows 10, version 2004 and later

Global Profile is designed for scenarios where a user doesn't have a designated profile, yet you still want the user to run in lockdown mode. It's also used as mitigation when a profile can't be determined for a user.

This sample demonstrates that only a global profile is used, with no active user configured. Global Profile will be applied when every non-admin account signs in.

## Folder Access sample xml
Starting with Windows 10 version 1809 +, folder access is locked down so that when common file dialog is opened, IT Admin can specify if the user has access to the Downloads folder, or no access to any folder at all. This restriction has been redesigned for finer granularity and easier use, and is available in Windows 10 version 2009+.

IT Admin now can specify user access to Downloads folder, Removable drives, or no restrictions at all. Downloads and Removable Drives can be allowed at the same time.

To authorize a compatible configuration XML that includes elements and attributes from Windows 10 version 1809 or newer / Windows 11, always include the namespace of these add-on schemas, and decorate the attributes and elements accordingly with the namespace alias.

For example, to configure the autolaunch feature that was added in Windows 10 version 1809 / Windows 11, use the following sample. Notice an alias r1809 is given to the 201810 namespace for Windows 10 version 1809 / Windows 11, and the alias is tagged on AutoLaunch and AutoLaunchArguments inline.

```xml
<AssignedAccessConfiguration
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/AssignedAccess/2017/config"
    xmlns:r1809="http://schemas.microsoft.com/AssignedAccess/201810/config"
>
    <Profiles>
        <Profile Id="{9A2A490F-10F6-4764-974A-43B19E722C23}">
            <AllAppsList>
                <AllowedApps>
                  <App DesktopAppPath="%SystemRoot%\system32\notepad.exe" r1809:AutoLaunch="true" r1809:AutoLaunchArguments="1.txt"/>
