    Dear Ponmani

    Please explain ur problem.  You want to block an .exe file from execution or you want an exe file not to be created by any user in any drive???

    Dear Mani

    This is not possible with the help of Symantec. You can block the exe from execution but cannot stop users from creating or copy/pasting it in any drive.

    To block users to create na exe u need to have a Group Policy in Domain Controller.

    Dear Mani

    In Application and Device control Policy u can block, allow and make read only any application or device, but u cannot stop craeting an exe file try to understand that.

    I hope we are understanding your question correctly. Please try to explain further what you mean by "creating" an .exe. I took it to mean what Ajitjha thought when he said users cutting and pasting a .exe to another location. Is this what you mean? Or do you mean stop users from actually running the .exe?

    Thanks,
    Grant
