Managed By PolicyPak

Because PolicyPak Application Settings Manager can perform user-interface (UI) lockout and ACL Lockdown, IT administrators might want to signal to their users, in a subtle way, that IT is in charge of the application.

You can accomplish this by selecting "Add ‘Managed by PolicyPak' to Windows under management," as seen In the figure shown.
