- The **Windows settings** are similar to group policy (GPO) settings in Active Directory (AD). These settings are built in to Windows, and are [ADMX-backed settings](/windows/client-management/mdm/understanding-admx-backed-policies) that use XML. Know Issue Rollback (KIR) policy definition that is installed in the Administrative Template can activate a KIR on managed devices. In a hybrid Azure AD or Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain, you can [apply a KIR to devices by using GPO](/troubleshoot/windows-client/group-policy/use-group-policy-to-deploy-known-issue-rollback#apply-a-kir-to-devices-in-a-hybrid-azure-ad-or-ad-ds-domain-using-group-policy).

When managing devices in your organization, you want to create groups of settings that apply to different device groups. You also want a simple view of the settings you can configure. You can complete this task using **Administrative Templates** in Microsoft Intune. You can also use [Intune custom settings](custom-settings-windows-10.md) for ADMX ingestion and [configure ADMX-backed MDM policies to perform a KIR activation](/troubleshoot/windows-client/group-policy/use-group-policy-to-deploy-known-issue-rollback#deploy-a-kir-activation-using-microsoft-intune-admx-policy-ingestion-to-the-managed-devices) without requiring a GPO.

On your enrolled devices, you can use administrative templates to create a Known Issue Rollback (KIR) policy, and deploy this policy to your Windows devices. For the specific steps, go to [Deploy a KIR activation using Microsoft Intune ADMX policy ingestion to managed devices](/troubleshoot/windows-client/group-policy/use-group-policy-to-deploy-known-issue-rollback#deploy-a-kir-activation-using-microsoft-intune-admx-policy-ingestion-to-the-managed-devices).
