Prevent user to install software from USB/CD/DVD drives
We would like to restrict users on the client machines to be able to install softwares from USB / CD / DVD drives. However we would like to give the users capability to install SCCM packages from shared location. Moreover we do not want to disable USB/CD/DVD drives so that users can copy the contents from USB drive.
How can I prevent the users from installing the software only from USB or CD or DVD via Group Policy?
