Policy CSP - Storage
Tip
This CSP contains ADMX-backed policies which require a special SyncML format to enable or disable. You must specify the data type in the SyncML as <Format>chr</Format>. For details, see Understanding ADMX-backed policies.
The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see CDATA Sections.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Storage/AllowStorageSenseGlobal
Storage Sense can automatically clean some of the user's files to free up disk space. By default, Storage Sense is automatically turned on when the machine runs into low disk space and is set to run whenever the machine runs into storage pressure. This cadence can be changed in Storage settings or set with the "Configure Storage Sense cadence" group policy.
Enabled:
Storage Sense is turned on for the machine, with the default cadence as 'during low free disk space'. Users can't disable Storage Sense, but they can adjust the cadence (unless you also configure the "Configure Storage Sense cadence" group policy).
Disabled:
Storage Sense is turned off the machine. Users can't enable Storage Sense.
Not Configured:
By default, Storage Sense is turned off until the user runs into low disk space or the user enables it manually. Users can configure this setting in Storage settings.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Storage/WPDDevicesDenyReadAccessPerDevice
This policy setting denies read access to removable disks, which may include media players, cellular phones, auxiliary displays, and CE devices.
If you enable this policy setting, read access is denied to this removable storage class.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, read access is allowed to this removable storage class.
This policy does enforcement over the following protocols that are used by most portable devices, for example, mobile/IOS/Android:
- Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) over USB, IP, and Bluetooth.
- Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) over USB, IP, and Bluetooth.
- Mass Storage Class (MSC) over USB.
Note
WPD policy isn't a reliable policy for removable storage. You can't use WPD policy to entirely block removable storage. For example, if a user inserts a USB drive to a device with a WPD policy, the policy may block PTP or MTP, but the user can still browse the drive in Windows Explorer.
