MD-102 Manage applications Practice Question
You need to deploy a custom Microsoft Edge extension to managed Windows 10 devices via Intune. Which policy type should you use?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse 'Device restrictions' with 'Administrative Templates' because both appear under the 'Configuration profiles' blade, but Device restrictions lack the granular, application-specific policies (like Edge extensions) that only ADMX-backed profiles can deliver.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Administrative Templates profile (ADMX-backed policies)
Deploying a custom Microsoft Edge extension via Intune requires configuring the 'Install Extensions Silently' policy, which is an ADMX-backed policy available through the Administrative Templates profile. This policy type allows you to manage Edge-specific settings using the built-in ADMX files that Intune imports from the Edge administrative templates, enabling silent installation of extensions by specifying their update URL or extension ID.
