Hey,
one thing I noticed is that using such a policy to restrict copy/paste/print seems to only work for the Word browser app, for example. Once a user clicks to edit the file in Word Desktop it stops working. Can you confirm that? Thanks.

colonel_claypoo that is correct, session policies are meant to be for web sessions only! I would advise you to block access from desktop apps for unmanaged devices with Conditional Access or Access Policies. This way people are only able to work from the web, with the cut/copy/print restrictions active.
Another possibility is looking at MAM for Windows, with this you are able to set the same restrictions on an application level for desktop apps. Unfortunately there is no support yet for Office Desktop Apps besides Microsoft Edge at the moment. If you wanna know how it works, I'll leave a link here to my blog about this subject: https://myronhelgering.com/first-look-at-mam-for-windows/
