Intune org-manged apps and/or devices and KeePassDX

[danielfdickinson]

This is for your information. There have been some issues where users have reported that KeePassDX reports an issue with the database file even though it reads and writes fine on KeepassXC and KeePass 2, and even other devices, with no issues.

One cause of this (that I ran into, hence this note) is that if one is using an Intune org-managed apps (like org-managed OneDrive) or an Intune org-managed Android device, then

If the data protection policy prevents the managed apps from transferring data to unmanaged apps, then a database from one's KeePassXC that one tries to access on Android through OneDrive (for instance) will throw an error that doesn't indicate the real issue.

I spent several hours before figuring out the issue. In my case I was able to test (and verify) the theory by changing the protection settings, because I have MS365 with Intune licenses.

Hope that helps someone.
