Prevent access to 16-bit applications

ComputerNative Intune settingAppCompatPrevent16BitMach

Supported on At least Windows Server 2003

What it does

Specifies whether to prevent the MS-DOS subsystem (ntvdm.exe) from running on this computer. This setting affects the launching of 16-bit applications in the operating system. You can use this setting to turn off the MS-DOS subsystem, which will reduce resource usage and prevent users from running 16-bit applications. To run any 16-bit application or any application with 16-bit components, ntvdm.exe must be allowed to run. The MS-DOS subsystem starts when the first 16-bit application is launched. While the MS-DOS subsystem is running, any subsequent 16-bit applications launch faster, but overall resource usage on the system is increased. If the status is set to Enabled, the MS-DOS subsystem is prevented from running, which then prevents any 16-bit applications from running. In addition, any 32-bit applications with 16-bit installers or other 16-bit components cannot run. If the status is set to Disabled, the MS-DOS subsystem runs for all users on this computer. If the status is set to Not Configured, the OS falls back on a local policy set by the registry DWORD value HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\WOW\DisallowedPolicyDefault. If that value is non-0, this prevents all 16-bit applications from running. If that value is 0, 16-bit applications are allowed to run. If that value is also not present, on Windows 10 and above the OS will launch the 16-bit application support control panel to allow an elevated administrator to make the decision; on windows 7 and downlevel, the OS will allow 16-bit applications to run. Note: This setting appears in only Computer Configuration.

These deployment candidates come from the ADMX template; they are separate from the native CSP mapping above.

  • The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
  • Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
