Let's dive into the topic of apps that can block installation on Windows 11. 🌐


Blocking Users from Installing Programs in Windows 11


Windows 11 provides several ways to prevent users from installing programs, whether you want to limit installations to the Microsoft Store or restrict third-party app installations. Here are a couple of methods:


1. Block Program Installation via Settings:

   - Open the Settings app by clicking the Start button and selecting Settings.

   - Navigate to the Apps section on the left pane.

   - Click on Advanced App settings.

   - Under Choose where to get apps, select The Microsoft Store Only.

   - From now on, Windows 11 will allow app installation only via the Microsoft Store, blocking third-party apps.


2. Prevent Users from Installing Software via Group Policy:

   - Search for Local Group Policy and open the Local Group Policy Editor.

   - Navigate to the path: Computer Configuration ➡️ Administrative Templates ➡️ Windows Components ➡️ Windows Installer.

   - Look for the Prohibit User Installs policy, double-click it, and select Enabled.

   - Click Apply to enforce the policy.


Remember that Microsoft maintains a list of banned applications that can prevent Windows 11 updates. If you encounter issues during updates, check if any of these apps are installed and consider removing them. Happy computing! 😊👍
