Let Windows apps access user movements while running in the background

ComputerNeeds changes for IntuneLetAppsAccessBackgroundSpatialPerception

Supported on At least Windows Server 2016, Windows 10

What it does

This policy setting specifies whether Windows apps can access the movement of the user's head, hands, motion controllers, and other tracked objects, while the apps are running in the background. You can specify either a default setting for all apps or a per-app setting by specifying a Package Family Name. You can get the Package Family Name for an app by using the Get-AppPackage Windows PowerShell cmdlet. A per-app setting overrides the default setting. If you choose the "User is in control" option, employees in your organization can decide whether Windows apps can access the user's movements while the apps are running in the background by using Settings > Privacy on the device. If you choose the "Force Allow" option, Windows apps are allowed to access user movements while the apps are running in the background and employees in your organization cannot change it. If you choose the "Force Deny" option, Windows apps are not allowed to access user movements while the apps are running in the background and employees in your organization cannot change it. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, employees in your organization can decide whether Windows apps can access the user's movements while the apps are running in the background by using Settings > Privacy on the device. If an app is open when this Group Policy object is applied on a device, employees must restart the app or device for the policy changes to be applied to the app.

Why it needs changes for Intune
  • Policy references a Windows supportedOn definition.
  • ADMX-INTUNE-WINDOWS-SUPPORTEDON-REFERENCE

In Intune

No native CSP; import the ADMX (needs changes first).

From Microsoft's Policy CSP DDF files (DDF v2 Files, February 2026), read 18 Oct 2026.

  • The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
  • Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
  • The generated payload is incomplete because one or more ADMX element values were not supplied: LetAppsAccessBackgroundSpatialPerception_UserInControlOfTheseApps_List, LetAppsAccessBackgroundSpatialPerception_ForceAllowTheseApps_List, LetAppsAccessBackgroundSpatialPerception_ForceDenyTheseApps_List
