Intune policy configured to block driver updates; however, the device still received and installed a BIOS/firmware update.

Why ?

    Hello,

    the BIOS came either from a Driver Update Policy or an OEM update tool, not from the Update Ring itself. The screenshot only blocks Windows drivers in the Update Ring and does not by itself prove that firmware updates are blocked.
