    Hello 2code-monte ,

    You can enable MFA for users by using a legacy per-user MFA
    1. In the Microsoft 365 admin center, in the left nav choose Users > Active users.
    2. On the Active users page, choose Multi-factor authentication.
    3. On the multi-factor authentication page, select each user and set their Multi-Factor auth status to Disabled.

     "curious if after enabled all users are forced to enrol within the MFA app on the next login?" - yes, you are right.
