About The Error
We already know the cause of the error that this article is talking about. It occurs mainly when we try copying data from Outlook to other software. Mostly the error comes to display when you paste the data into an illegal program.

Outlook and Microsoft Intune Policy
There are some situations that will restrict you from copying, cutting or pasting from Outlook to other applications. This is mainly due to the Microsoft Intune Policy. The list of such situations is:
1. Policy Managed Applications
This very option will enable you to cut/copy and paste data between Outlook and other policy-managed apps on your system.
2. Intune Blocking
Intune blocked is an option that holds you back from cutting/copying and pasting data from intune applications to other software on a device.
3. Policy Managed With Paste In
