Introducing Config Refresh for mobile device management

A new Windows 11 feature is available to help you manage your company’s policies using mobile device management (MDM). Starting with the May 2024 non-security update, you can now use Config Refresh to configure policy refresh timing to be as short as 30 minutes or as long as 24 hours. This helps improve security and compliance as you monitor that settings don’t drift from your intent. Learn how you can use the Microsoft Intune Settings Catalog to manage Config Refresh and troubleshoot it in the Event Viewer.
