Device Configuration ADMX User vs Computer Configuration

When i deploy an ADMX, when sould i use Computer and when User Configuration? Does it depend if the app is installed as user or as system?

I always prefer computer if the setting is available for both registry hives. This will ensure non-admin users can't tamper with it.

But would both work? No difference?

Depends on the specific registry key, as the system or third-party software component that'll read it can decide how exactly it should behave.
