Certainly! I'll update the article to include references to Microsoft Edge ADMX files as well. Here's the revised HTML content: ```html

Introduction

This guide outlines the process of importing custom ADMX (Administrative Template) files into Microsoft Intune, with a specific focus on Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and Windows ADMX files. Understanding the dependencies between these files is crucial for a successful import.

Prerequisites

  • Access to Microsoft Intune admin center
  • ADMX and ADML files for Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and Windows
  • Understanding of ADMX file dependencies

ADMX File Dependencies

  • Firefox.admx depends on Google.admx
  • Chrome.admx depends on Windows.admx
  • Edge.admx depends on Windows.admx

Due to these dependencies, the order of import is critical.

Import Order

  1. Windows.admx
  2. Google.admx
  3. Chrome.admx
  4. Edge.admx
  5. Mozilla.admx
  6. Firefox.admx

Step-by-Step Import Process

1. Prepare ADMX and ADML Files

Download the necessary ADMX and ADML files:

2. Access Intune Admin Center

  1. Sign in to Microsoft Intune admin center.
  2. Navigate to Devices Configuration profiles.

3. Import ADMX Files

For each ADMX file, follow these steps in the specified order:

  1. Click "Import ADMX" in the top menu.
  2. Click "Import" and select the ADMX file and its corresponding ADML file.
  3. Specify the language of the ADML file (currently, only en-us is supported).
  4. Review and create the import.
  5. Wait for the status to show as "Available" before proceeding to the next file.

4. Verify Imports

After importing all files, refresh the page to ensure all ADMX files show as "Available" in the status column.

Creating a Profile Using Imported ADMX Files

  1. Go to Devices Configuration profiles Create profile.
  2. Select "Windows 10 and later" as the platform.
  3. Choose "Templates" as the profile type.
  4. Select "Imported Administrative templates (Preview)".
  5. Configure the desired settings from your imported ADMX files.
  6. Assign the profile to your target devices or users.

Troubleshooting

  • If an import fails, check for missing dependencies.
  • Ensure you're not exceeding the limit of 20 ADMX files, each under 1 MB.
  • For namespace errors, verify that all required ADMX files are imported in the correct order.

Limitations

  • Maximum of 20 ADMX files can be uploaded.
  • Each file must be 1 MB or smaller.
  • Only one ADML file per ADMX file is supported.
