As an Intune admin, you end up with a collection of test devices…. Windows VMs, Windows physical devices , Android, iOS, macOS, Linux, and the only one missing from my arsenal… Windows ARM. I had a client who recently added some Windows ARM devices, and I wanted to do some testing with Inune policies and […]

For those use cases, we steer towards shared devices or multi-app kiosks (now configured using assigned access). Back in the Windows 10 days, there was an actual multi-app kiosk profile template that we could use in Intune, but Microsoft

Update 10/16/25 – The script has been completely rewritten to use raw Microsoft Graph API endpoints via Invoke-MgGraphRequest, rather than relying on the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK cmdlets. It also pulls the policy and configuration profile JSON files from my GitHub instead of as objects inside the script. If you want to use your own
