Monitor for and resolve Intune policy conflicts
When two profiles set the same setting differently, Intune applies NEITHER and it silently reverts to default. Find clashes in the assignment-failure report and remove the overlap, exclude a group, or use an assignment filter.
Step 1. Sign in to https://intune.microsoft.com as the Example Company Intune admin.

Step 3. Open the 'Configuration policy assignment failure' report; the Conflict column counts clashing devices per policy.

Step 4. Click a policy row with a non-zero conflict, then a device, to see the exact conflicting setting and the other policy that set it.

Step 5. Fix in Devices > Configuration: open ONE policy and either remove the overlapping setting, add the other group to Excluded groups, or replace the include with a broad group + assignment filter; Save.

Step 6. Check ALL blades (Configuration, Endpoint security, Security baselines, Group Policy analytics), not just Configuration.

Step 7. After the next device check-in (up to ~8h, or force a sync) confirm the conflict count is now 0.
