Hey Paul! Thanks for the feedback. We understand the two different menus are confusing. We are formulating a plan to hopefully remove some of that confusion. More to come in the future.

matt, a follow up on this. Must the end-user select 'Run with Elevated Access' in order to make use of the EPM policy? That is, let's say there's a policy to let this user run this app. What happens if they just double click the app to run it?

    BryanDam it depends.  If the policy is for zero touch (automatic) elevation, then double-clicking the file will allow it to elevate through EPM.

     

    However, if the policy is for user confirmed elevation, then double-clicking the file will just run it non-elevated.  The user needs to use "Run with elevated access" for elevating using a policy rule which specifies user confirmed elevation.
