Intune Certificate Connector (please confirm)
Hi CrimsoWarTusk! The "Certificate Connector for Microsoft Intune" and "Microsoft Intune Connector" in your screenshot are, indeed, the same thing.
To boost your confidence a little: you were right to look at its version number. Version 6.1904.1.0 is the last release for "Microsoft Intune Connector" and dates back to April 2, 2019. It was superseded by "PFX Certificate Connector", which was deprecated March 10, 2021, to be superseded once again by "Certificate Connector [...]". That last one is your current connector, which was first released on July 29, 2021 at version 6.2107.45.0.

- Thank you NielsScheffers!!!
Oh my goodness. I had a feeling the name changed at some point, but could not find a single reference online. All the walk through guides that I have read also have other configuration steps which just confused things even more. Based on the Microsoft document I came across after the fact, my mistake was not first uninstalling the old Microsoft Intune Connector FIRST and THEN installing the latest version (Intune Certificate Connector).
We will see what happens when I remove the old version, but just to be safe we are capturing the account information in case a re-install is required.
Cannot thank you enough for this information and I hope this thread and the following link helps someone else avoid the time I have spent trying to make sense out of the evolving connector name changes lol
