Scope:

[!div class = "checklist"]

  • Device

Available in the latest Windows 10 Insider Preview Build. This policy setting allows you to manage the deployment of Windows Store apps when the user is signed in using a special profile.

Special profiles are the following user profiles, where changes are discarded after the user signs off:

  • Roaming user profiles to which the "Delete cached copies of roaming profiles" Group Policy setting applies
  • Mandatory user profiles and super-mandatory profiles, which are created by an administrator
  • Temporary user profiles, which are created when an error prevents the correct profile from loading
  • User profiles for the Guest account and members of the Guests group

If you enable this policy setting, Group Policy allows deployment operations (adding, registering, staging, updating, or removing an app package) of Windows Store apps when using a special profile.

If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Group Policy blocks deployment operations of Windows Store apps when using a special profile.

Tip

This is an ADMX-backed policy and requires a special SyncML format to enable or disable. For details, see Understanding ADMX-backed policies.

You must specify the data type in the SyncML as <Format>chr</Format>. For an example SyncML, refer to Enabling a policy.

The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see CDATA Sections.
