Find the List of SCCM Client Settings Assigned for a Device in ConfigMgr Console Easiest Method

Today, I will explore the easiest method for finding a list of SCCM client settings assigned for a device in the ConfigMgr console.

The list of client settings feature is useful for troubleshooting scenarios. You can check the client settings. You don’t have to use the PowerShell script or SQL query to find the list of client settings for a device in SCCM.

The client settings list can be accessed from the SCCM admin console itself. The client setting is where you configure SCCM client policies from the server side.

You can modify default client settings to configure settings for all users and devices in your ConfigMgr hierarchy or create a custom settings policy to deploy specific policies to a small set of devices or users.

NOTE: If you want to change client settings, I recommend changing the default client settings instead of creating a custom client policy.
