Creating Your Own Custom ACE Tests

AdminStudio 2023 | 25.0 | Application Manager

Edition:This functionality is included in the AdminStudio Professional and Enterprise Editions.

In addition to using the built-in ACEs that are shipped with Application Catalog, you can also create your own company-specific tests for use when detecting conflicts. For example, your organization may want to identify (and change) any VBScript custom actions that have a hard-coded drive letter, any applications that create desktop or uninstall shortcuts, any applications that have Startup registry entries, or any applications that place files in the system directory. You can create custom tests to identify these (and many more company-specific situations) using Application Catalog.

Note:Use the Rules Wizard to create user-defined ACEs. To open the Rules Wizard, open the ACE Tests tab of the Application Catalog Options dialog box, click the View Rules button to open the Rules Viewer dialog box, and then click the New button. The Rules Wizard opens. See Rules Wizard for more information.
