I have a problem with MikTeX in correlation with AppLocker. MikTeX is creating a file called C:USERS%USERNAME%APPDATALOCALTEMPMIKTEX-UPDATE.TMP during installation and this is caught by AppLocker as an executable at an unsafe location.
This behaviour is discouraged by our IT and hence I have to comply with it. Do you have any ideas, how to overcome this issue?

Report it in the miktex issue tracker. But imho your IT should do something about it. TMP is a standard extension for a temporary file and the TEMP folder is the standard location for such files.

According to Christian Schenk (https://github.com/MiKTeX/miktex/issues/91), MIKTEX-UPDATE.TMP is only created, when using the MikTeX Update shortcut (not administrative mode) from the start menu. This then creates a copy of the executable (the tmp), which is called thereafter. So my issue was the missing understanding of where the tmp is actually created.
