What's New
The AppControl Manager can now be natively installed on non-X64 platforms such as ARM64. It no longer uses MSIX files, it uses MSIXBundle files which include the MSIX files for multiple platforms, making the installation simpler and more straightforward.
The Logs page no longer has a file size limit. It will display log files of any size in an optimized and high-performance way.
The Logs folder would previous be automatically cleaned up when it reached 100MB. The new limit is now set to 1GB.
Removed the color pickers from the Logs page which resulted in the removal of an extra dependency package from the application. They were used to control the logs text color and highlight color which are no longer needed. Now, the text color is defined by your OS theme which makes it more accessible and readable, and the highlight color is defined by your OS accent color.
Significantly improved the search experience in the Logs page.
FilePath or Wildcard FilePath rules are no longer created for kernel-mode files because only user-mode files can be allowed/denied via File Path. Using FilePath rules for kernel-mode files simply has no effect.
✨You can now effortlessly swap any deployed policy in the System Information page. For example, if you have the "Allow Microsoft" policy deployed and you want to change it instantly to "Default Windows", you can select "Default Windows" from the dropdown menu and confirm the action. All of the supplemental policies associated with that base policy will continue to work. At the moment this feature only works for unsigned policies and will cover signed policies in a future version.
In the MDE Advanced Hunting page, added a new section where you can view query examples that generate standard logs compatible with the AppControl Manager, as suggested here.
