Answer 1

@Zeeshan Bute, Thanks for posting in Q&A. Based on my checking, Currently, I didn't find there's such policy in Intune.

Based on my researching, I find we can delete registry key "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AppID{86F80216-5DD6-4F43-953B-35EF40A35AEE}" to disable view WiFi password. You can test on one device to see if it is what you wat. As a reminder, please do a backup before we delete the registry key.

If this is what you want, we can write a script to delete the registry key and deploy it via Intune. Hope the above information can help.

Deleting "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AppID{86F80216-5DD6-4F43-953B-35EF40A35AEE}" only encrypts the password from Advanced Wi-Fi Network properties.

Is there a way to disable "View Wi-Fi Security key" in Windows 11?
