## App Control and Smart App Control

Starting in Windows 11 version 22H2, [Smart App Control](https://support.microsoft.com/topic/what-is-smart-app-control-285ea03d-fa88-4d56-882e-6698afdb7003) provides application control for consumers. Smart App Control is based on App Control, allowing enterprise customers to create a policy that offers the same security and compatibility with the ability to customize it to run line-of-business (LOB) apps. To make it easier to implement this policy, an [example policy](design/example-appcontrol-base-policies.md) is provided. The example policy includes **Enabled:Conditional Windows Lockdown Policy** option that isn't supported for App Control enterprise policies. This rule must be removed before you use the example policy. To use this example policy as a starting point for creating your own policy, see [Create a custom base policy using an example App Control base policy](design/create-appcontrol-policy-for-lightly-managed-devices.md#create-a-custom-base-policy-using-an-example-app-control-base-policy).

Smart App Control is only available on clean installation of Windows 11 version 22H2 or later, and starts in evaluation mode. Smart App Control is automatically turned off for enterprise managed devices unless the user has turned it on first. To turn off Smart App Control across your organization's endpoints, you can set the **VerifiedAndReputablePolicyState** (DWORD) registry value under `HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CI\Policy` as shown in the following table. After you change the registry value, you must either restart the device or use [CiTool.exe -r](operations/citool-commands.md#refresh-the-app-control-policies-on-the-system) for the change to take effect.
