[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1005049, member: 32260"] I am afraid that it is kinda true. SAC comes from WDAC (ISG enabled), and this setup is promoted by Microsoft in businesses for a few years. Now, Microsoft wants probably to achieve some objectives. [LIST=1] [*]Microsoft says to the customers: Hey guys, we offer you modern and very strong protection, but it will work flawlessly with properly signed applications (including DLLs). Please use Microsoft Store and Microsoft software to be sure. [*]Microsoft says to the software developers: Hey guys, please use code signing. If not then your applications will be blocked by SAC. If you are angry, then please submit the applications to Microsoft via the Smart App Control channel - we will check it, and then it can possibly be added to allow list. [/LIST] A similar campaign was done (with partial success) after introducing SmartScreen for Explorer with Windows 8. [/QUOTE]
