This MD-102 practice question tests your understanding of manage applications. The scenario asks you to isolate a root cause — eliminate options that address a different problem before choosing. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
Your company uses Microsoft Intune to manage Windows 10 devices. You need to deploy a Microsoft Store app (new) named 'Company Portal' to all devices. The app is already added to Intune. You want to ensure that the app is automatically installed on devices that are not yet enrolled in Intune.
You assign the app to the 'All devices' group with the intent 'Required'. However, you notice that devices that enroll after the assignment do not receive the app automatically.
What should you do to ensure that the app installs on newly enrolled devices?
Create a new assignment with 'Available' intent for the 'All devices' group
Why wrong: Still requires user action.
Ensure the 'All devices' group is a dynamic group that includes all devices
Dynamic groups automatically include new devices.
Re-add the app to Intune
Why wrong: App is already added.
Change the assignment intent to 'Available'
Why wrong: Available requires user to install from Company Portal.
Answer choices
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
Ensure the 'All devices' group is a dynamic group that includes all devices
Option C is correct. The 'Required' assignment with 'All devices' group will apply to devices that enroll later because the assignment is dynamic. However, if the group includes 'All devices', new devices should get the app. The issue might be that the group is a static device group. The best practice is to use a dynamic device group that includes all devices. Option A is wrong because the assignment is already required. Option B is wrong because 'Available' requires user initiation. Option D is wrong because the app is already added.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Common exam traps
Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.
Detailed technical explanation
This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
A cloud solutions architect for a retail company is evaluating services for a new workload. The correct answer here reflects best practice for the specific scenario described — not a general cloud recommendation. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
