ThreatLocker now permits users to customize their Application Control Tray settings. These Advanced settings can be configured by using the 'Tray Settings - Application Control'.

Note: This Advanced Setting requires the Windows Agent 10.8.3 or above.

Within the 'Create Settings' sidebar in the 'Advanced Settings' page, select the 'Tray Settings - Application Control' from the 'Setting Type' dropdown menu.

Ensure that you select the correct level this Advanced Setting will apply to and the Order By. Then, you will see a new section titled 'Parameters'.
