Intune - Block Settings App

[petben]

Hi, I have an Intune policy that includes 'Block access to settings App'

 

Include groups - student user groups - 'Year7', 'Year8' etc.

 

Exclude group of - 'IT team'

 

The trouble is whoever I log in as (including someone in the IT Team group) the Settings app is blocked (empty actually).

 

I am wondering if this is actually a setting that once set (by a student logging in) will not revert back for the next person (an IT Team person)? Maybe it's only a device setting..?

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

It will be because you are switching user that has a different set of policies applied and intune hasn't completed a sync at that point.

 

Push out the install of company port then you can always open that and force a resync.

Thanks, is there anything I need to block in the company portal app itself for student loan devices? Don’t want them wiping the device for example!

The kids cannot touch anything in mine but I have set the basic EDU policies and then added a whole bunch of other policies to stop access to things.

 

For basic education policies.

Use this for all tweaking and nitty gritty bits.

I haven't logged into the education azure portal since the beginning.
