Policy with no targets went to all machines

We have a few machines that did not update their FV recovery key, so I created a policy that will be scoped to a smart group. I did not create the smart group yet so I have the policy scoped to Specific Machines and Specific users, with nobody added; no targets. It is also set to run once per machine and only attempt 3 times. However, despite these settings it did still push out to all our machines and was attempting on failed machines indefinitely. I have it disabled currently but can find no reason why it pushed out to anybody. has anyone encountered this before and if so, was there a fix for it?

Click the history button at the bottom right of the policy to view the changes to the policy. You might be able to identify who mis-scoped the policy prior to you taking screenshots.

We found the issue and it was human error not server related. 🙂
