Applocker restrictions causing Windows Script Host Error when Toast notifications enabled

I’m now running into an issue.
When using PSADT v3.10 and having the option “Toast_Disable” set to “False” within the “AppDeployToolkitConfig.xml” to enable toast messages for the install process.
I’m getting an WSH error.
When “Toast_Disable” is set to “True” the issue doesn’t occur.

In testing we found that a .vbs script is copied (Runhidden.vbs I believe the name is) to the users profile in a folder created by PSADT. This file is being blocked by Applocker polices we have in place.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you solve it? Security admin doesn’t want to create an allow rule for the folder as it would allow users to run anything from this folder. Also, we don’t fully understand how this folder is used by PSADT and what other files/folders are created here when using PSADT.

FYI: This has been resolved in PSADT 3.10.1 (see previous discussion: Error Runhidden.vbs Set-ActiveSetup - #8)
