Force Windows to Check in with InTune

There are times when you will want to sync your operating system with the InTune service.

In some situations, it may be necessary to force Intune agent on the managed device to contact Intune service in the cloud (check-in). This will ensure that all assigned configuration and compliance policies are re-applied and refreshed on the device. For example, your device may be showing as not compliant even though all Windows updates have been installed. To force Intune agent to check-in:

1. Go to Settings and select Accounts


2. Click on Access work or school


3. Click on id.umassglobal.edu then on the Info button


4. Scroll down to Device Sync Status and click on Sync button


5. Wait for the message "The sync was successful" with a current date/time.
