Hi All,

I am trying to create a USB block policy on the test machines. Seems for some reason it says not applicable or pending. The device is online

I tried attack surface reduction policy, administration template policy, Device control policy. Nothing is getting applied. Is there any prerequisites need to be fulfilled for this to work. Please suggest

    @karthik palani , From your description, I know some Intune policies are not applied with not applicable status or pending.

    Firstly, please ensure the OS is Intune supported. Here is a link list the supported OS in Intune:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/fundamentals/supported-devices-browsers#intune-supported-operating-systems

    If the OS is in the supported list, please firstly focus on one affected policy and collect the following information to troubleshoot

    1. Could you let us know how many devices are affected? What is the OS version? And What are the manufacture of these affected devices?
    2. Please get a screen shot of the configuration of one affected policy.
    3. Please check the event log under Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Windows > DeviceManagement-Enterprise-Diagnostic-Provider->Admin on one affected client to see if there's any error related.

    If there's any update, feel free to let us know.
