Configure Windows Diagnostic Data using Intune

In this article, we will explain how to configure Windows diagnostic data using Intune for your organization. We will use a device restriction policy in Intune to set Telemetry level as Required for Windows devices.

Broadly, there are two ways to manage Windows diagnostic data in an organization: Group Policy and Intune (MDM). If your Windows devices are managed by Intune, you can choose the telemetry level and configure how the diagnostic data is sent to Microsoft.

On Windows devices, Telemetry refers to the process of collecting and transmitting diagnostic data from a user’s device to Microsoft’s servers for a variety of purposes. This information assists Microsoft in improving its products and services, troubleshooting issues, and making informed decisions about future updates and features.

What is Windows Diagnostic Data?


Microsoft collects Windows diagnostic data to solve problems and to keep Windows up to date, secure, and operating properly. It also helps us improve Windows and related Microsoft products and services and, for customers who have turned on the Tailored experiences setting. It provides more relevant tips and recommendations to enhance Microsoft and third-party products and services for each customer’s needs.


If your device is currently running Windows 10 version 1903 or earlier and its Diagnostic setting is set to enhanced, upgrading to Windows 10 version 1903 or later will automatically change it to Required diagnostic data.


How to Check the Diagnostic Data on Windows Devices


On Windows 10 devices, you can view the Diagnostic data by selecting Settings > Privacy > Diagnostics and Feedback. On Windows 11 devices, navigate to Settings > Privacy and Security > Diagnostics and Feedback to check the diagnostic data configuration.


In the screenshot below, we see the diagnostic data on Windows devices is set to Optional diagnostic data. We will configure Windows Diagnostic Data using Intune and set the diagnostic data from Optional to Required.


Configure Telemetry with Device Restriction policy


One of the prerequisites for managing Windows driver updates using Intune is to have the Telemetry turned on, with minimum setting of Required on Windows devices. Microsoft recommends configuring telemetry level for Windows devices using device restriction policy.


In the device restriction profile, under Reporting and Telemetry, configure the Share usage data with a minimum value of Required. Values of Enhanced (1903 and earlier) or Optional are also supported.


Using OMA-URI for Telemetry configuration


In Intune, you can either use device restriction policy or OMA-URI settings for configuring Telemetry level. The most preferred method out of the two is using a device restriction policy. The OMA-URI method for setting telemetry level is not covered in this article.

In case you want to use OMA-URI, you must create a custom device configuration profile and specify the values. Use the appropriate value in the table below when you configure the telemetry level for Windows devices using Intune.

Windows Diagnostic data collection settings


According to Microsoft, there are four diagnostic data collection settings available for Windows devices. Each of the diagnostic data collection level defines what data is being sent to Microsoft.


  • Diagnostic data off (Security): No Windows diagnostic data sent.
  • Required diagnostic data (Basic): Minimum data required to keep the device secure, up to date, and performing as expected.
  • Enhanced: Additional data about the websites you browse, how Windows and apps are used and how they perform, and device activity. The additional data helps Microsoft to fix and improve products and services for all users.
  • Optional diagnostic data (Full): Additional data about the websites you browse, how Windows and apps are used and how they perform. This data also includes data about device activity, and enhanced error reporting that helps Microsoft to fix and improve products and services for all users.


Configure Windows Diagnostic Data using Intune


In this section, we will create a device restriction policy in Intune that will set telemetry data setting to Required.


  • Sign in to Microsoft Intune admin center.
  • Go to Devices > Windows > Configuration Profiles.
  • To create a new profile, select Create Profile.

In this article, we will show you how to disable Pause Updates using Intune and Group Policy. You can block the “Pause Updates” ability on both Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices with a GPO or Intune Policy to prevent users from pausing the updates. Sometimes Windows updates cause so many problems that you just want to turn them off. Despite the fact that Microsoft updates are essential for Windows PCs, not all users install them on a regular basis. You can disable the Pause Updates feature on your Windows PC to prevent users from delaying updates. Windows 10 and 11 Home and Pro users can pause the minor updates on their PC by themselves from Windows Update settings. On Windows PC, you can pause updates for a total of five times to delay the updates for 35 days. You can delay quality updates a week at a time for up to 35 days.

Turn on Location Redirection for Windows 365 Cloud PC

In this article, we will demonstrate how you can turn on location redirection for Windows 365 Cloud PC. The location redirection feature lets Cloud PCs access your approximate location safely without privacy concerns. Users can turn on Location redirection so that their Cloud PCs use their correct geographic location. By turning on the location service, you let your Cloud PC use the location of your physical device for most apps. Because the Cloud PC relies on your physical device for location information, you must first enable location redirection on your physical device and then on the Cloud PC. Enabling location redirection requires local admin privileges on the Cloud PC. There are multiple ways to connect to and access your Cloud PCs. However, the location redirection feature is only available when connecting to the Cloud PC via a web browser. Other methods, such as the remote desktop client and the Windows 365 app, do not support enabling location direction for Cloud PCs yet. Micr
