# How to Modify App-V 5.1 Client Configuration Using the ADMX Template and Group Policy


Use the Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) 5.1 ADMX template to configure App-V 5.1 client settings using the ADMX Template and Group Policy.

**To modify App-V 5.1 client configuration using Group Policy**

1.  To modify the App-V 5.1 client configuration, locate the **ADMXTemplate** files that are available with App-V 5.1.

    **Note**  
    Use the following link to download the App-V 5.1 **ADMX Templates**: <https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=393941>.

     

2.  On the computer where you manage group Policy, typically the domain controller, copy the template **.admx** file to the following directory: **&lt;Installation Drive&gt; \\ Windows \\ PolicyDefinitions**.

    Next, on the same computer, copy the **.adml** file to the following directory: **&lt;InstallationDrive&gt; \\ Windows \\ PolicyDefinitions \\ en-US**.

3.  After you have copied the files open the Group Policy Management Console, to modify the policies associated with your App-V 5.1 clients browse to **Computer Configuration** / **Policies** / **Administrative Templates** / **System** / **App-V**.
