On October 22, 2022, Microsoft Intune ended support for devices running Windows 8.1. Technical assistance and automatic updates on these devices aren't available.
If you currently use Windows 8.1, then move to Windows 10/11 devices. Microsoft Intune has built-in security and device features that manage Windows 10/11 client devices.

Android device administrator management is deprecated and no longer available for devices with access to Google Mobile Services (GMS). If you currently use device administrator management, we recommend switching to another Android management option. Support and help documentation remain available for some devices without GMS, running Android 15 and earlier. For more information, see Ending support for Android device administrator on GMS devices.
Intune includes device restriction policies that help administrators control Android, iOS/iPadOS, macOS, and Windows devices. These restrictions let you control a wide range of settings and features to protect your organization's resources. For example, admins can:
Allow or block the device camera.
Control access to Google Play, app stores, viewing documents, and gaming.
Block built-in apps, or create a list of apps that allowed or prohibited.
Allow or prevent backing up files to cloud and storage accounts.
Set a minimum password length, and block simple passwords.
These features are available in Intune, and are configurable by the administrator. Intune uses configuration profiles to create and customize these settings for your organization's needs. After you add these features in a profile, you then assign the profile to devices in your organization.
This feature applies to:
Android device administrator
Android Open Source Project (AOSP)
Android Enterprise personally owned devices with a work profile
iOS/iPadOS
macOS
Windows 11
Windows 10
Windows 8.1
This article shows you how to create a device restrictions profile. You can also see all the available settings for the different platforms.
To create a device restrictions profile for Windows 10 Team devices, like Surface Hub, then select Device restrictions (Windows 10 Team).
Select Create.
In Basics, enter the following properties:
Name: Enter a descriptive name for the policy. Name your policies so you can easily identify them later. For example, a good policy name is iOS/iPadOS: Block camera on devices.
Description: Enter a description for the policy. This setting is optional, but recommended.
Select Next.
In Configuration settings, depending on the platform you chose, the settings you can configure are different. Select your platform for detailed settings:
In Scope tags (optional), assign a tag to filter the profile to specific IT groups, like US-NC IT Team or JohnGlenn_ITDepartment. For information about scope tags, go to Use RBAC and scope tags for distributed IT.
Select Next.
In Assignments, select the users or groups that will receive your profile. For information on assigning profiles, go to Assign user and device profiles.
Select Next.
In Review + create, review your settings. When you select Create, your changes are saved, and the profile is assigned. The policy is also shown in the profiles list.
