 Section 2 — Real-Time Troubleshooting Scenarios (With Solutions)

Scenario 1 — Intune Policy Not Applied After Enrollment

Symptoms: Device shows Not Applicable for compliance policy even though it’s enrolled.

Root Causes & Resolutions:

• Device not Azure AD Registered/Joined → Fix Azure AD join.
• Multiple conflicting policies → Prioritize using assignment filters.
• Device sync failure → Trigger Manual Sync from Company Portal.

---

Scenario 2 — Win32 App Fails Repeatedly

Cause: Detection rule is incorrect or missing.

Fix:

1. Confirm correct detection rule (e.g., file, registry).
2. Increase install timeout.
3. Review IntuneManagementExtension.log.

---

Scenario 3 — Autopilot Stucks at “Working on Updates”

Root Causes:

• Network proxy blocking connectivity
• Required app deployment taking long

Solutions:

• Allow all Autopilot endpoints
• Use Pre-Provisioning mode
• Optimize ESP app list

---

Scenario 4 — Device Status Not Reported

Cause: Intune Management Extension didn’t install.

Solution:

• Restart device
• Ensure WinRM & BITS services are running
• Check policies pushing the extension

 Section 3 — Hands-On Labs (Step-by-Step)

These labs are designed to give real enterprise-level practice prior to interviews.

---

Lab 1 — Configure Windows Autopilot Profile

1. Upload hardware hash (CSV).
2. Create Autopilot profile (User-Driven).
3. Assign group.
4. Boot device → azureAD join → Intune enroll.
5. Validate policy & app deployment.

---

Lab 2 — Create Compliance + Conditional Access Policy

1. Build compliance policy: Require BitLocker & password.
2. Create Azure AD Conditional Access: Block access unless compliant.
3. Test access with non-compliant device.
4. Observe blocks via Azure Sign-Ins.

---

Lab 3 — Deploy Win32 App With Dependencies

1. Prepare .intunewin package.
2. Configure dependencies → order installation.
3. Setup detection rule.
4. Monitor in Device Install Status.
5. Validate success.

---

Lab 4 — SCEP Certificate Deployment for Wi-Fi

1. Setup SCEP certificate profile.
2. Create Trusted Root certificate.
3. Deploy Wi-Fi profile using SCEP.
4. Connect device to Wi-Fi.
5. Verify certificate installation.

---

Lab 5 — Configure RBAC & Scope Tags

1. Create scopes for Region A devices.
2. Assign RBAC role to a scoped admin.
3. Confirm admin sees only scoped devices.
4. Attempt policy assignment outside scope → blocked.

---

 Section 4 — Best Practices & Interview-Ready Notes

Compliance vs Config Profiles

• Compliance is evaluation
• Config is enforcement

Autopilot Best Practices

• Use White Glove for minimal end-user setup.
• Avoid large ESP app sets → slows boot.

Troubleshooting Priority

1. Enrollment check
2. Assignment check
3. Policy conflict
4. Intune logs
