Remotely restart devices with Intune
- 2 minutes to read
The Restart device action causes the device you choose to be restarted (within 5 minutes). The device owner isn't automatically notified of the restart, and they might lose work.
Supported platforms
Windows - Supported on Windows 8.1 and later
Windows Phone - Supported on Windows Phone 8.1 and later
Android kiosk devices - Supported on Android 7.0 and later
iOS/iPadOS - Supported
