Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
.USBGuard saves rules even if RuleFile is not defined Previously, if the `RuleFolder` configuration directive in USBGuard was set but `RuleFile` was not, the rule set could not be changed. With this update, you can now change the rule set even if RuleFolder is set but RuleFile is not. As a result, you can modify the permanent policy in USBGuard to permanently save newly added rules.
