Please log in for more thread options > if you want to deny installation why don't you use Software Policies.??
If only it were that simple . . . or, if it is would you clue us in ??
Part of the issue is that there are many installers one would have to
disallow with software policy, and there are installs that are only copy
to disk (without installers, reg entries, component registrations, etc.)
