This may have been discussed already, but is there a way to backup user data and configuration for an Intune enrolled device, and take that backup and apply it to another machine?

    @Blake Fuller, Thanks for posting in Q&A. For the two devices are they in the same tenant?

    As different device is with different device id, for enrolled information. It can't backup and restore on another device. And if the two devices are in the same tenant, we can check all the policies, apps applied to the device. If the policy is assigned to device group, we can add the new device into the same device group to apply all these policies. if the policy is assigned to user group and we use the same user account to enroll, then it will apply these policies automatically.

    Note: Non-Microsoft link, just for the reference.

    Hope the above information can help.
