XML vs. BIN:
Simply put, the "XML" policies are for applying to a machine locally and the "BIN" files are for enforcing them with either [Group Policy](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/deploy-windows-defender-application-control-policies-using-group-policy) or [Microsoft Intune](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/deploy-windows-defender-application-control-policies-using-intune).

Thanks for the wonderful documentation! The BIN files are generated from the XML files using the WDAC Toolkit released by Microsoft. As far as I'm aware you can't apply the BIN files locally using the command line. They must be pushed from GPO or from Intune.

I couldn't make the converted *.bin
versions work (I ran the conversion script included), so I edited those on WDAC
(to generate the *.cip
policies), and followed this, then bricked my workstation since I selected the enforced version by accident, any tips for reverting? (already tried running the audit version, hoping that it would override the newly set policies but no dice)

Terribly sorry you bricked your system. Can you explain more about what isn't working?
This is what the audit only rules are for. So you can test them.

We've made a few changes and updated the policies slightly. Also we started including CIP versions as well.
Please review the changes as well as all the Recommended Reading

Lastly,
Reversing the policies can be done multiple ways, however it can be difficult because it depends on the manner in which you implemented them.
You can read the following for some guidance
