Can't restore access to USB storage device
- Aug 23, 2022
perty1976, I think you must use the OMA-URI method, as that is (kind of) how it was set, so the tattoo is in there. Simply changing the registry (via regedit) may not yield results.
Hi perty1976! Unfortunately, like you've noticed, this configuration is tattooed on the device (it's not removed when unassigned, it just isn't enforced anymore).
When you say you already "changed the registry value", did you do it manually or via OMA-URI (./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/System/AllowStorageCard = (integer) 1)? The latter should work. It requires a restart, though.

Thank you Durrante the article was one of those I referred to.
When AllowStorageCard = 0
But when AllowStorageCard = 1And the storage device is connected
Yes, when I change registry key I restart my notebook and I am trying with different storage devices.
I change registry settings manually by regedit as local admin.
Now the configuration to disable USB is for all autopilot devices but my is in a filter for exclusion and my user is in a OU in excluded group.

Tomorrow I will try with another notebook. I hope it's only my notebook to have this problem!
