We have scheduled the Apply All Patches policy for one of the Windows devices. During the patching process, an end user reported that Automox attempted to install OneDrive updates, which Microsoft Defender flagged and blocked as an unusual update operation. Could you please assist with this issue

Here is the rule I’ve used
