Tbf it’s already write for admins only. But, if you completely remove write access that makes the file itself obsolete (there’s no use in a file that no one can edit) and if you restrict it to trusted installer / verified software, that’s not gonna eliminate Adobe.


Yeah from my intuition it sounds like this file serves as a makeshift firewall / proxy. Allowing software to override it kinda makes this weak and basically useless for a lot of purposes.
