I have a requirement to disable the print screen on windows 10. I have gone through few technet articles and followed the registry changes but that doesn't work. Kindly provide your suggestion on how this can be achieved.

This policy has to be pushed to multiple machines through Intune.

Note: Snipping App and Snip & Sketch app are already disabled.

    @Sabarish Natarajan Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

    For this issue, there is no built-in setting can be deployed to disable Print Screen. I find someone has the similar requirement in the uservoice. We can vote and post in it. This is a place to collect customers' requirements and problems.

    Also, it is suggested to try to write a PowerShell script to disable Print Screen key and deploy this script via intune. The following article describes how to deploy PowerShell scripts:

    Thanks for understanding.
