We are moving towards the modern management and deploying apps via INTUNE and i have a request to create an Intune-Applocker policy to disable %SYSTEM32%\Windows\PowerShell* for all users and exclude administrators.

Question is if i block powershell, will the powershell Win32 apps and script deployed via INTUNE will also be blocked ?

    @sathya prakash , Based on my knowledge, if the PowerShell is blocked on the client, the PowerShell script, or some Win32 apps which needs to run command with PowerShell will be affected. For other Win32 apps that are installed via Windows installer, they will still work.

    Hope it can help.
