Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The Intune Management Extension is missing
The Intune Management Extension is required to process Win32 app installations. If the extension is missing or not running, required apps will not install even though the device is online and assignment is configured. Option A is wrong because BitLocker encryption status does not affect app installation. Option B is wrong because device-targeted assignments do not require the user to be logged in. Option C is wrong because the enrollment status page does not block required app installations after enrollment is complete.
