Is Intune Functionality dependent on Windows OS Build?

Question

Trying to run a configuration profile which limits user access to Control Panel and Settings App. Wrote configuration profile for it, pretty simple, assigned it to an individual test user account, but it is throwing an error 65000.

After a bit of poking around came across an answer stating that this Device Restriction setting is only available in Windows 21H2 onwards and I'm on 20H2 (Don't shout, got issue with Windows Update Ring and Microsoft Support are working with me to sort it out).

My question is does this type of thing happen alot, if the OS version is out of date and if so will it tend to throw this error 65000?

@Anonymous , In fact, Intune only deploy the policy to the device, to make the functionality works. This still depends on windows itself. If the windows version is not supported for the setting, then the policy will fail with error. or not take effect.

For the Control Panel and settings, the setting will be deployed via the Settings policy CSP

Here is a link with more details of Settings policy CSP

For the error code 65000, I didn't find a detailed explanation with it. But you can view the DeviceManagement-Enterprise-Diagnostic-Provider event log to get more finding.

Hope it can help.
