4848On a device that does not meet these requirements, Chat still works apart from Advanced file analysis, and Cowork reports that it is unavailable. If a device meets them and Cowork still fails to start, check whether endpoint security software is blocking the agent helper, as described under [Application control rules](#application-control-rules).

52You can deploy Claude Desktop to devices that do not yet meet the [Cowork virtualization](#cowork-virtualization) requirements. Before you deploy to those devices, have a tenant administrator or organization owner turn off the **Cowork in Claude Desktop** and **Advanced file analysis in Chat** switches under [Product availability](/docs/government/config/settings#product-availability) for the devices' users, for example through a [directory group](/docs/government/config/overview#group-specific-settings) that contains them. With both switches off, those users keep Chat and Code, and the app does not download or start the virtual machine on their devices. Turn both switches back on once those devices meet the requirements.

5256* **Two registry values.** Push the two values described under [Windows](/docs/government/deploy-desktop/configure#windows) as machine policy under `HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Claude`: the required `bootstrapUrl` and the recommended `disableDeploymentModeChooser`. No other values are needed to connect the app, because everything else reaches each user from Claude for Government at sign-in. If your agency distributes Claude Desktop updates itself, also add the value described under [Automatic updates](/docs/government/deploy-desktop/configure#automatic-updates).
