      I don't think setting it to unconfigured undoes the original change. you have to change the setting to not blocked, or unblocked, whatever the option is, then give that time to actually apply, then you can set it back to unconfigured.

      Not how InTune policy works.

      FFS, the screenshot looks pretty straightforward

      I hear yeah... Then perhaps the setting hasn't been pushed down to the client yet.

      It has, because prior to turning it back off, the drives were not detected at all.

      oh wow - the rule kills the ability to even detect them.. weird.

        Check the registry according to this:

        Well, that's not it.

          Is Windows up to date?

          Have you tried another USB drive?

          Have you checked in Disk Management?

            Yes

            Have you tried another USB drive?

            Multiple

            Have you checked in Disk Management?

            As soon as you format it in DM, it pops up the error.

              I think that's a Windows thing. I've always had trouble on Win10 lately (not Intune related) with USB drives. Easily fixed by formatting in on Mac or Linux in my experience.

                So it doesn't work with diskpart too?

                  Diskpart does everything it is supposed to do.

                  once the format completes, windows tells you to fuck off.

                    That sucks...

                    What does the device manager in Windows say? Maybe there is some USB host controller/hub driver that has become corrupted.

                      See if this registry key is present and what it is set to...

                      HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PolicyManager\current\device\System
                      Name: AllowStorageCard

                          Time to take a snap of the registry, then apply the change, then compare them.

                            It is already broke. that will not find a change.

                              my bad - I meant get a new machine/image, snap before applied.. then apply snap again and compare.

                                Try with Rufus on that same device.

                                        Yeah, I was already assuming that, but I've checked every setting I can find related to USB access and made sure they were opened again.

                                            I still have no luck with this and I cannot find any settings that make any sense.

                                            I've become good friends with CreenConnect's command screen.
