- Environment Variables Filters - These filters are used for compatibility testing and user requested elevation.
- Network Location Filters - These filters are used to identify what network a computer is attached to.
- Secondary File Filters - A Secondary File filter addresses the situation where the intended action is not the primary executable (such as RunDll.exe), but rather a file specified within the commandline. It examines the commandline of an application to see whether there appears to be a secondary file. If so the secondary file filter applies the specified filters to the secondary file.
- Signed Application Filters - These filters are used to filter applications based on their digital certificate.
- Time of Day Filter - These filters allow an application filter to be applied based on the specific time an application is launched. The time details can be set individually for each day of week, or applied to the same period on all days.
