Summary
This test checks the setting for policy 'WPD Devices: Deny write access' on Windows hosts (at least Windows 7). The policy setting denies write access to removable disks, which may include media players, cellular phones, auxiliary displays, and CE devices. If you enable the policy setting, write access is denied to this removable storage class. If you disable or do not configure the policy setting, write access is allowed to this removable storage class.
