Trouble creating Local admin users via Intune

We are trying to create a local admin user other than the auto pilot user in Intune. The way we have setup is our auto pilot user (Domain user account) is an admin user and then we are using CSP to create another local admin user. We are using hybrid mode enrollment.

We have a Device configuration profile with OMA URI as follows:

- OMA-URI: ./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Accounts/Users/localadmin/Password

Data Type: String

Value: *******

- OMA-URI: ./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Accounts/Users/localadmin/LocalUserGroup: 2

Data Type: Integer

Value: 2

Assignment : User Group

When it Works:

So far based on testing it works when the profile is assigned to the Dynamic device group which is created to perform auto pilot on intune machines for which the device hash is already imported, but in this process it fails to make the auto pilot user as an admin

When it doesn't work:

When the configuration profile is applied to user group, it fails to create the user, but then the auto pilot user is created properly with admin rights.

Variations tried:

Making the localadmin user as a non admin by changing the integer value to 1 and then first tried with dynamic device group assigned, which failed and also the user group which also failed.

Client machine Windows version: Windows 10 21H2

Would like to avoid the PowerShell script method if possible. Kindly let me know if you require any further details.

 

Local administrator windows 10 user and folder name change (full change)

Hi Shaaddi,

Have you made sure that the account currently logged-in to has Administrator privileges? You can verify this by following these steps:

• Press Windows key + I on your keyboard and click Accounts.
• Click Your info on the left pane.
• Under your account picture, you can see if the account is a Local Admin.

If the account is not an Admin account, we suggest making one and try to transfer the files from there. Here's an
article for a guide on how to create a local user
or admin account in Windows 10.
