Software Restriction Policies were deprecated beginning with Windows 10 build 1803 and also applies to Windows Server 2019 and above. You should use Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) or AppLocker to control what software runs.

Selected Answer: BC
The two possible ways to achieve the goal of preventing users from using Microsoft Store apps on their Windows 10 computers are: The correct answer is B. From Administrative Templates in the local Group Policy, configure the Store settings. You can use the Group Policy Editor to configure the Store settings in the Administrative Templates. This will allow you to disable the Microsoft Store and prevent users from installing or using apps from the store. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box. 2. Type "gpedit.msc" and press Enter to open the Local Group Policy Editor. 3. Navigate to "Computer Configuration" > "Administrative Templates" > "Windows Components" > "Store". 4. Double-click the "Turn off the Store application" policy setting. 5. Select the "Enabled" option. 6. Click OK to save the changes.

The correct answer is C. From Security Settings in the local Group Policy, configure Software Restriction Policies. You can use Software Restriction Policies to prevent users from running Microsoft Store apps on their Windows 10 computers. This can be done by creating a rule that blocks the execution of all Microsoft Store apps. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box. 2. Type "gpedit.msc" and press Enter to open the Local Group Policy Editor. 3. Navigate to "Computer Configuration" > "Windows Settings" > "Security Settings" > "Software Restriction Policies". 4. Right-click "Software Restriction Policies" in the Action menu and select "New Software Restriction Policies". 5. Right-click "Additional Rules" and select "New Path Rule". 6. In the "Path" field, enter "%ProgramFiles%\WindowsApps\*" (without quotes). 7. In the "Security level" field, select "Disallowed". 8. Click OK to save the changes.

Options A and D are not valid solutions for preventing users from using Microsoft Store apps on Windows 10 computers. Security Options and Application Control Policies are not related to the Store settings or Software Restriction Policies.
