UX Changes Need Approval?
Hey everyone. Quick question regarding Microsoft approvals. We’ve already secured approval for our test and production environments, but we recently changed out a new, slightly refreshed UX for the feature (this is still in out testing as we can't release without Microsoft's approval). Does anyone know if we need to re-submit for approval for a minor UX change? And if we do, can we just drop an email to the CSPP team, or do we need to fill out the official form as a brand-new request? Thanks in advance!
Looking for a way to make adult content extremely difficult to access on my Windows 11 laptop
Hello everyone, I know this is an unusual question, but I sincerely hope someone here can help me. I am an 18-year-old student who has been struggling with an addiction to adult content for the past four years. I have been trying very hard to overcome it, and at one point I was able to stay away from it for almost a year. Unfortunately, since last October, I have relapsed and have been trying everything I can think of to prevent myself from accessing this content again. So far, I have tried: Changing my IPv4 and IPv6 DNS settings to family-safe filtering services. Editing the hosts file to block websites. Using various website blockers and parental control tools. Trying different software restrictions and browser-based solutions. The problem is that I am the one who configured all of these. When I experience a strong urge, I already know exactly how to disable or bypass every restriction because I set it up myself. Unfortunately, I cannot ask my parents or anyone close to me for help. Discussions about topics like this are extremely difficult in my family, and I don't feel comfortable involving them. Because of that, I'm trying to find a technical solution that I cannot easily undo on my own. I'm not asking how to bypass restrictions—I want the exact opposite. I am looking for the strongest possible Windows-based solution that makes it as difficult as possible for me to access adult content, even if I know a lot about computers. Are there any Windows features, account configurations, Group Policy settings, security options, or other methods that could make these restrictions significantly harder to remove? Even if they are not completely impossible to bypass, I would like something that requires so much effort that it gives me time to stop and reconsider. Any advice or suggestions would mean a great deal to me. This has become a serious personal struggle, and I am doing everything I can to overcome it because I genuinely believe my future depends on breaking this habit. Thank you very much for taking the time to read my post.
Can Copilot Studio agent connected via WhatApp channel escalate to representative?
We have built a Copilot Studio agent that uses adaptive cards and connected it through a WhatApp channel. We want this agent to be able to escalate a customer to a representative should they need assistance while communicating with the bot, however, with the current channel set up we use it is not possible. We had managed to connect the agent via Dynamics and WhatsApp simultaneously, but we then had double messages coming through on the WhatsApp chat, now we are only connected through the WhatApp channel. Is there a way for us to also connect through Dynamics in order for customers to be able to escalate to a customer representative? Or is there a way for us to allow for escalations via the WhatsApp connection?Metrics in Training Service Partner dashboard still shows not started
our TSP was on-boarded some months before, and it has now been more than some months since we started delivering training courses. We received the welcome email, completed all required formalities, and have delivered some trainings, and learners redeemed the achievement codes, and completed the surveys in MTM. All of these sessions appear correctly in, MTM surveys, and related dashboards. However, in Partner Center it still shows “Not Started.” Could you guys please review this and help us understand why the status has not updated? Thank you,MS Teams add in not working on Outlook Classic
This has got me stumped. So far we've changed registry keys: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Resiliency\DoNotDisableAddinList Name: TeamsAddin.FastConnect Amend name to: TeamsAddin.FastConnect Ran commands: %SystemRoot%\System32\regsvr32.exe /s /n /i:user %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\TeamsMeetingAddin\Current\x64\Microsoft.Teams.AddinLoader.dll Deleted files: Press Windows Key + R to open the Run dialog box.Type %localappdata%\Microsoft and hit Enter.Find and delete the folders named TeamsMeetingAddin, TeamsPresenceAddin, and SquirrelTemp (if they exist) Ran the following: Close Outlook and Teams. Open Windows Settings > Apps > Installed Apps (or Programs and Features). Search for Teams Meeting Add-in or Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office. Click the three dots (or right-click) and select Uninstall. Re-open Teams, which will automatically prompt the reinstallation of the add-in, then open Outlook We've uninstalled and reinstalled Teams. Also Skype is uninstalled. The RDS Boxes are 2016 And we're stumped as to why MS Teams won't work, and the add-in on the ribbon for Outlook classic also won't enable MS Teams. Any ideas? Please help!How to Block onmicrosoft.com in Outlook classic on Windows 11?
How can you permanently block 'onmicrosoft.com' emails for Outlook classic on Windows 11 (personal - MS365)? I am tired of and disgusted at the amount of phishing/spam/malware emails that come in via onmicrosoft.com on behalf of some other entity. All of the emails are of this category. And supposedly they are from Costco, Home Depot, Lowes, United Health, Sam's Club, cloud storage, protection (Norton), etc. I have accounts at these big box stores and regularly receive marketing emails directly from these companies - AND - these stores actually know my account name and use it in the email. Whereas the emails from onmicrosoft.com do not. These us no name (and some no email address) to tell me my account is in trouble of expiring, out of space, payment past due, or infected - total BS. I understand that new domains get created daily and that much of these are difficult to prove validity initially. However, since Microsoft is in a tough situation to know validity or not, give us a way to block, turn off, make a rule, to block emails from onmicrosoft.com so that my Junk mail is not saturated with these bogus emails. Rules will not work. You cannot create one that blocks and/or automatically deletes emails from onmicrosoft.com. Report does not work either as the ones reported on keep showing up day after day. If Microsoft's position is that it produces superior products, then it should provide a way for the user to turn off features not needed or desired. 'onmicrosoft.com' is one of the worst product enhancements to come along. Hoping for a solution.

Hello Everyone, I’m currently working on an Office 365 tenant-to-tenant migration project and would like to get recommendations and insights from the community based on real-world experience.

I would also like to understand: Important prerequisites before starting the migration Best practices for source and target tenant preparation Common issues faced during migration Steps to validate the environment after migration Recommendations to reduce migration risks and downtime If anyone has handled similar migrations, please share your suggestions, lessons learned, or things that should be avoided during planning and execution.Pre-attestation health checks confirm a critical component has failed...
I have been having some trouble with my Windows and PC overall because of an error, event ID 1040. The entire PC crashes, fully reboots, and this is the error that I get in the event viewer. I am making a post about this because I have tried persistently to attempt to resolve this issue, but to no avail. I am hoping to receive some input from the community.
