Die Verwaltung von Benutzerberechtigungen und Anwendungszugriff in einem Unternehmensnetzwerk kann eine schwierige und zeitraubende Aufgabe sein. Dennoch können Skripte, die diese Aufgaben automatisch erledigen, eine große Hilfe für IT-Profis und Managed Service Provider (MSPs) sein. Heute konzentrieren wir uns auf ein PowerShell-Skript, mit dem der Windows Store für alle Benutzer:innen und neu erstellte Benutzer:innen mit AppLockerdeaktiviert werden kann. Dieses Skript ist auf Windows 10- und Server 2016-Systeme zugeschnitten und bietet mehrere konfigurierbare Optionen, wie z. B. den Ausschluss bestimmter Benutzer:innen und die Beschränkung auf bestehende Benutzer:innen.
In diesem Blogbeitrag gehen wir auf die verschiedenen Aspekte des Skripts ein und erläutern, warum es eine unschätzbare Ergänzung für Ihre IT-Toolbox sein kann.

Zugriff auf über 300 Skripte im NinjaOne Dojo
Hauptmerkmale des Skripts
Prüfung auf erhöhte Berechtigungen
Bevor das Skript Änderungen vornehmen kann, prüft es, ob es mit Administratorrechten ausgeführt wird. Dies ist wichtig, um Änderungen an Systemeinstellungen und Benutzerkonten vorzunehmen.
Flexibilität bei Benutzerausschlüssen
Wenn Sie die Einstellungen nicht auf alle Benutzer:innen anwenden möchten, haben Sie die Möglichkeit, eine durch Komma getrennte Liste von Benutzer:innen anzugeben, die ausgeschlossen werden sollen.
Option nur für bestehende Benutzer:innen
Wenn Sie es vorziehen, dass neu erstellte Konten nicht betroffen sind, gibt es auch dafür einen Parameter.
Manipulation der Registrierung
Das Skript nutzt die Windows-Registrierung, um Richtlinienänderungen durchzusetzen, und stellt sicher, dass diese tief verwurzelt sind und Systemneustarts überstehen.
AppLocker-Integration
Das Skript geht über einfache Registrierungsänderungen hinaus, indem es auch eine AppLocker-Regel erstellt, um den Windows Store zu blockieren, was eine zusätzliche Sicherheitsebene darstellt.
Wie MSPs davon profitieren können
Kundenspezifische Anpassung
Mit der Option, bestimmte Benutzer:innen auszuschließen, können MSPs das Verhalten des Skripts an die individuellen Bedürfnisse jedes Kunden anpassen.
Skalierbarkeit
Egal, ob Sie ein kleines Unternehmensnetzwerk oder ein multinationales Unternehmen verwalten, dieses Skript lässt sich dank seiner Automatisierungsfunktionen mühelos skalieren.
Einhaltung der Vorschriften
In vielen Branchen gibt es strenge Compliance-Richtlinien, die die Nutzung von Anwendungen einschränken. Dieses Skript hilft bei der Einhaltung dieser Vorschriften, indem es den Zugriff auf nicht autorisierte Anwendungen aus dem Windows Store blockiert.
Mehrwert-Service
MSPs können dies als Teil ihres Sicherheitspakets anbieten und so ihren Service für potenzielle Kunden attraktiver machen.
Zusammenfassung
Sicherheit und Compliance sind zwei Seiten derselben Medaille im IT-Management. Dieses PowerShell-Skript erleichtert beides, indem es den Prozess der Deaktivierung des Windows-Speichers für mehrere Benutzerkonten automatisiert, mit anpassbaren Optionen für verschiedene Anwendungsfälle. Sowohl IT-Fachleute als auch MSPs können durch die Integration dieses Skripts in ihre regulären Arbeitsabläufe erhebliche Zeiteinsparungen, verbesserte Sicherheit und eine optimierte Verwaltung erzielen.
