# Configure an AppLocker policy for enforce rules
|
||
|
||
**Applies to**
|
||
- Windows 10
|
||
|
||
This topic for IT professionals describes the steps to enable the AppLocker policy enforcement setting.
|
||
|
||
>**Note:** When AppLocker policy enforcement is set to **Enforce rules**, rules are enforced for the rule collection and all events are audited.
|
||
|
||
For info about how AppLocker policies are applied within a GPO structure, see [Understand AppLocker rules and enforcement setting inheritance in Group Policy](understand-applocker-rules-and-enforcement-setting-inheritance-in-group-policy.md).
|
||
|
||
You can perform this task by using the Group Policy Management Console for an AppLocker policy in a Group Policy Object (GPO) or by using the Local Security Policy snap-in for an AppLocker policy on a local computer or in a security template. For info how to use these MMC snap-ins to administer AppLocker, see [Administer AppLocker](administer-applocker.md#bkmk-using-snapins).
|
||
|
||
**To enable the Enforce rules enforcement setting**
|
||
|
||
1. From the AppLocker console, right-click **AppLocker**, and then click **Properties**.
|
||
2. On the **Enforcement** tab of the **AppLocker Properties** dialog box, select the **Configured** check box for the rule collection that you are editing, and then verify that **Enforce rules** is selected.
|
||
3. Click **OK**.
|
||
|
||
For info about viewing the events generated from rules enforcement, see [Monitor app usage with AppLocker](monitor-application-usage-with-applocker.md).
