IntuneDeviceConfigurationPolicyWindows10: mismatched datatypes in mof & psm1

[daniel-huf]

Details of the scenario you tried and the problem that is occurring

The data types for the properties/parameters "passwordBlockSimple" and "passwordSignInFailureCountBeforeFactoryReset" are both declared differently in the psm1 module file and it's corresponding mof file.

Property	Datatype mof	Datatype psm1
passwordBlockSimple	Uint64	Boolean
passwordSignInFailureCountBeforeFactoryReset	Boolean	Uint64

Verbose logs showing the problem

Error converting the value of property "passwordBlockSimple" from type "BOOLEAN" to type "UINT64"

Error converting the value of property "passwordSignInFailureCountBeforeFactoryReset" from type "SINT64" to type "BOOLEAN"

Suggested solution to the issue

Change data types in mof-file:

• passwordBlockSimple -> Boolean
• PasswordSignInFailureCountBeforeFactoryReset -> Uint64

The DSC configuration that is used to reproduce the issue (as detailed as possible)

# insert configuration here
    node localhost
    {
        IntuneDeviceConfigurationPolicyWindows10 test-config
        {
            displayName                                           = "test-config"
            description                                           = ""
            passwordBlockSimple                                   = $true
            passwordSignInFailureCountBeforeFactoryReset          = 12
        }
    }
