Copy-paste issue (COPE)
Thanks all for your input. I'm being vague intentionally (NDA), but this is now being looked into and should be fixed.
Sharing workaround if someone else runs into this before resolution:
Create a new device restriction policy
Set copy/ paste to Allow and save
Reset copy/paste to Not configured and save.
Please note workaround doesn't work for existing policies, you need to create a new policy
Glad to stumble upon this thread and see that I'm not the only one experiencing this. Annoying because it had previously worked, and I only discovered it while migrating devices to a newer configuration profile. (Side note, it is ridiculously frustrating how Microsoft makes us create whole new profiles to get access to newer settings instead of updating existing to new templates, but I digress.)
If I understand correctly, it sounds like Microsoft is working on a fix? Any chance they gave an idea of WHEN it will be fixed that you can share?
I don't have the full picture, so please take this with the pinch of salt.
The way I was explained, it's not Microsoft fixing things this time, and it should be fixed "beginning of August".
Being sarcastic - nobody said which year, but I'm happy there's a workaround 🙂
That makes me think perhaps it's more of an Android issue, so maybe with the updates for Device Policy app or Android monthly updates, etc. Either way, that's great to hear some idea of time around it. Here's hoping they do mean August 2024, lol.
