Blocked USB file transfer

Be aware also Google changed out the default behaviour of usb when left unconfigured, which aligns with the experience you're describing.

Hey everyone,
I hope you've all had a good week.
Just wanted to come back to you. To clarify the change mentioned by jasonbayton above was updated by Microsoft Intune. I know there was a bit of uncertainty mentioned so just wanted to confirm this.
From our own testing, as you mentioned Weberda, it appears toggling the "USB File Transfer" policy setting from "Not Configured" to "block" (save), then back to "Not configured" (save) will enable USB file transfer. I believe Microsoft are working on an update to iron this out.
If you continue to have difficulties though, please do contact Microsoft Intune directly and they can advise you further.
Hope this helps and do keep us posted if you can.
Thanks again,
Lizzie

uh interesting... it's hard to investigate as i can't reproduce the issue on my device after factory reset but users are complaining about the missing functionality. All of them told us that they have used the usb file transfer for their photos before and sometime in between this has stopped working.
Ugly situation... "to be able to file transfer your photos again, you have to factory reset your device. please be aware your photos will be lost after the reset" 🤔
