EMET GPO Default Protects for Recommended Software conflicting with Application Configuration GPO

Hello,
I am trying to have Excel15 launch with the -EAF mitigation removed, but also have the "Default Protections for Recommended Software" policy Enabled. This is to allow the Microsoft Power Query Ad--In to function using Excel 365 Pro Plus x64.
It seems that the "Default Protections for Recommended Software" is taking precedent over the manually configured  "Application Configuration" Enabled policy.
I have the  Application Configuration Enabled and looks like:
- C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15\excel.exe -EAF
- *\Microsoft Office\OFFICE15\EXCEL.EXE -EAF
- *\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15\excel.exe -EAF
Any help would be greatly appreciated to get Excel launching without the -EAF mitigation.
Thanks,

if I understood correctly from talking to EMET feedback team last time, they said  App Config settings don't actually override any the default app or popular or IE protection profiles. (it really seems like App config settings override the other profiles
from the manual, hey? I thought so as well) 
Sooo, it sounded like we'd need to extract the recommended or popular app list, convert it to the path + mitigation not included format for the app config GPO and then just use app config to manage it. 
Needless to say it sounded surprising and laborious and not management by exception at all. 
Rinse repeat for new versions of emet and XML policy files . 
p.s what would be really helpful in the admin guide is some real world examples of contoso.local where they apply the recommended apps + a few exceptions for all + custom exceptions for a separate class of  machines or groups of users. hmeh.

  • EMET group policy preference "application configuration" vs "default protection for popular software"

    Hello,
    Trying to implement EMET 4.1 update 1 in a VDI environment using group policy. When all default protections are enabled (IE, recommended and popular) EMET is blocking the startup of windows media player within citrix session as caller
    mitigation. At this time I wanted to use the GPO "Application Configuration" to specify an exception as "wmplayer.exe -Caller". Even tried "*\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe -Caller" but startup would still get blocked. When
    using emet_conf --list I would see three entries for wmplayer and the only way to remove Caller is to disable policy "default protection for popular software". Shouldn't settings in Application Configuration take priority as being the exception to
    the rule? Alternative is to turn off the "default protection for popular software and list all of them one by one (or use XML file)
    here is part of the output of emet_conf --list
    all policies:
    wmplayer.exe           *\Windows Media Player       DEP SEHOP NullPage HeapSpray
     EAF MandatoryASLR BottomUpASLR LoadLib MemProt SimExecFlow StackPivot

  • FCP 5.03 won't launch/software conflicts with Avid?

    Hi,
    I just purchased FCP Studio and a new dual 2.3 G5. Installation ran fine. All other apps open (ie: soundtrack, dvd studio, motion, compressor, etc.).
    When I try to open FCP 5.03, it starts to open - anotherwords the rectangular box with FCP and my name and the serial number comes up like it's going to launch, but then the box goes away and no application. The finder then becomes active.
    I'm running on and OS 10.4.2 and QT 7.0.1 and would rather not go to 10.4.3 or a higher version of QT as I need this OS and QT for my Avid Xpress application. Plus I do not suspect that the OS or QT version is the problem, as we know FCP has launched on OS 10.4.2 and QT 7.0.1. All other software is up to date.
    Possibly there are software conflicts with Avid? The only other software I have installed on this machine is that which was packaged with Avid Xpress Pro v.4.8.1 which is as follows:
    Avid Xpress Pro v4.8.1 (which includes)
    Avid ALE
    Avid EDL Manager
    Avid FilmScribe
    Avid MetaSync Manager
    Avid MetaSync Publisher
    ...and also:
    Boris FX 6.1 LTD
    Bors Graffitt 2.1 LTD
    ATTO ExpressStripe
    Factory Floor
    Sonic Fire Pro v.3
    Sorenson Squeeze
    Any insight on how to launch FCP would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
    Michael.
    Powermac G5 2.3 GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.2)   4.5 GB RAM 2x500 GB HDs

    I've run 4.5 and Avid Express on the same system. And 5.0.3 (haven't cranked up the Avid software since installing 5.0.3). My first suspect would be some kind of Audio plugin.
    Use the Console program to inspect the logs. You might learn something that way. (/Applications/Utilities/Console).

  • Protection for demo software

    dear sir,
    i am using labview 7.0 with dsc module. Now  i had done coding according to my applicaton in softawre. I want to give my software exe cd to customer to observe the software. Now i want that the software exe will not run after 5 days from installation from his pc. After five days if he want to run the software he has to install the exe again. is it possible with labview. If yes please help me.
    falgandha

    Hello,
    A simple protection it's by creating a file with a strange name on c:\windows. In this file you put the installation date and then every time you run the .exe, the first thing that you do it's checking how many days passed. If the TotalDays > 5 then exit.
    All depends on the level of protection.
    Other ideas are:
    - use one entry on the registry
    - verify if the user changes the clock (if don't do that he can always move back and use it)
    If you wanna prevent the user rewind the clock, when you create the file with initialDate, create another with currentDate. Then every time you run the exe you verify this date. If the user moved back this date you exit the program. If this value it's greater than the older you should update.

  • Any known software conflicts with Leopard

    I am really frustrated. I've been an exclusive mac user since 87. I have had major problems with leopard that remind me of the pre-OSX days. Apps hanging, crashing, not shutting down (and I'm talking Apple apps like Safari). My computer hangs on shut down while Updating Boot Caches (I've let the thing run over night hoping I was just being impatient.). I have even had some kernel panics. I've run disk utility, TechTool Pro, and DiskWarrior. When I run these apps, some times they find problems and sometimes they don't. The hardware checks are okay. I have done a clean install of Leopard. And of course, everything is up to date. I have even had trouble syncing with dotmac with the syncs getting out of sync and constantly asking me which one I want to keep.
    I never, ever had these problems with Tiger.
    My final guess is that maybe there is some rouge piece of software that doesn't work well with Tiger.
    Is there a list.
    Any help?
    Ever so frustrated,
    Paul

    What you did was an erase and install.
    Check with each application vendor for software compatibility. The way you can tell if an application is compatible is if the actual update is said to be compatible.
    I.e, when it says:
    10.4.x and above means 10.4.0 and 10.4.1 compatible.
    10.4.x and 10.5.x and above it means 10.4.0 - 10.4.11, and 10.5.0, and 10.5.1 compatible. No assurance though exists for Intel compatibility, unless it says Application Universal in the Finder menu -> Get Info information about the application. Rosetta applications are typically PowerPC compatible, with dependence on PowerPC drivers and may not always work with Intel Macs.
    10.4.x and 10.5.0 to 10.5.2 it means it is compatible with the most recent release. The Intel Mac disclaimer applies here as well.
    10.4.x and 10.5.0 to 10.5.2 PowerPC and Universal means it will work with PowerPC and Intel Macs running Tiger and Leopard to present day.
    10.3.x and above does not mean 10.4.x compatible, nor does it mean 10.5.x compatible. There are some exceptions if the software was developed within the framework of Rosetta.
    Visit http://www.macupdate.com/ and http://www.versiontracker.com/ for the most current info on application compatibility. If there are any applications you are uncertain about their compatibility and want to make sure you remove them entirely, use http://www.appzapper.com/

  • Setting default value for form field assoc with a table column

    On a "Create Record" situation I was trying to set the default values of some form fields using a page level "Process". These form fields have Source Type = Database Column. It wasn't working, I could only set non-db assoc form field values no matter when the "Process" was set to exec. From some other posts it seems that this is by design, ie. not being able to programatically set the initial values of form fields that are sourced to db columns. I was hoping to have just one "Process" that would exec to set these initial values in one place rather than scattered about for each field that needed a default value. These particular default values come from ref tables and may be different for each user.
    So, it looks like I have to use a "Default Value" plsql chunk for each field on the form itself or else set their value on the calling form's Redirect in the "Set these Items" area.
    Is this correct?

    You could define a database function which accepts the name of the item and the user ID of the user running the application. Based on the item name and the user ID have the function return the appropriate initial value. Invoke this function in a "Default Value" PL/SQL block.
    Does that help in centralizing your initial values? You could have one function per page or one function per application. I would do one function per application.

  • Setting english as the default language for a new document with arabic version of CC apps

    first off, appologies for the screen name, the name i'm sure i had registered before with account was suppose dot be looged in as was barred, so i used this in frustration.  Read the book, The Etymologicon to learn more.
    and another note.  why is the font size in the subject on this form gigantic? intentional of cockup?
    Now, to the point.
    Please please enlighten me, I'm sure it's simple but i can't find the answer and have been haphazardly ploughing the net for half the night.
    I have installed the Arabic langauge version of CC software becuase i need to do a lot of bilingual layouts.
    But
    I generally use, and start with english, but the defualt new document is always set to all the arabic settings, which is a nightmare.
    How do i make english the defualt type (and all the paragraph and language options) while retaining the functionaility of arabic version. 
    I've found instructions for CS2-6 but nothing remotely sensible about CC, and presume i'm missing something really really obvious.

  • QuarkXPress 7.5 Crashes on Opening- Software Conflict with OS 10.6.3? HELP

    Hi All,
    I'm a graphic designer who knows her way around a Mac fairly well but I'm having problems with running my version of QuarkXPress (7.5) on my new MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.3). I installed everything correctly- when it asked for all my serial numbers and validation codes- they seemed to go through no problem. When all was said and done, I went to launch Quark and it crashed right after the first little splash page comes up. I can't get it to work. I read a thread on Quark's site where a guy tried everything and ended up having to return his brand new MacBook Pro he ordered online (like me- fully loaded) in return for a MacBook Pro at the Apple store and then when he reinstalled, Quark worked. I'd hate to do that- I love my new customized MBP and have all my stuff on it already. Yeah, I use InDesign, but I need Quark as well.
    Is there a fix? An update? Could this be more of a Mac problem than a Quark problem? I'm hoping it's Quark and not my new Mac.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated! I need this software to work soon!
    Thanks!!!

    We have 2 computers in the studio running Snow Leopard (the remaining 3 still on Leopard) and neither of them will run QuarkXPress 7.
    - MacBook Pro appeared to install and register okay about a year ago, but the boss who uses the machine only complained to me this week that it won't let him save, and it crashes immediately after printing. I'm thinking the registration never completed properly and it's running in demo mode.
    - iMac (latest generation) has the issue others have mentioned that is crashes after displaying the splash screen. I've tried the "fix" of removing the preferences folder, but then get the message that the application needs to be re-installed. Tried re-installation, and it went smoothly, but got exactly the same crash on launch.
    Is there anyone out there who is actually running QuarkXPress 7 successfully on Snow Leopard? If yes, how did you get it to work?!!
