Can the MS team please clarify that "Block device use until required apps are installed if they are assigned to the user/device" which is part of the ESP Profile should be set to ALL for pre-provisioning scenarios? I ask because IF there's a custom list of apps and it's not the full set of apps that are actually targeted, a green screen will show up prematurely because not all apps are tracked. This setting with "selected" is not optimal for pre-provisionig, it's more User Driven so the ESP doesn't have to track every app and user can get to the desktop quicker.

Hi Daniel, the “block device use until required apps are installed..” setting can be set to ALL if you are doing pre-provisioning and want all apps to be tracked in ESP. The challenge with doing this is that the whole process will fail if an app that’s targeted fails but is not necessarily crucial to deployment. We are working on improving this experience for more flexibility in the pre-provisioning phase in the near term.
