Making it so users cant disable autosave in office apps
Hi all, Is it possible to stop users from turning off autosave on office apps ie word through Intune? Thanks in advance!
- Jul 11, 2021If I am reading it correctly, he is looking for a method to DISABLE the possibility to turn off autosave, not to turn it off?
I don't know for certain when you disable that setting you mentioned is going to grey out the possibility to turn it off? Of did I read it totally wrong 🙂 ?

Hi ab21805,
You can set this via a PowerShell script or gpo. Please take a look at the following blogs
Method 1: Via gpo and oma uri

Please take a look also at the settings catalog profile in intune, maybe these settings are already present, and ready to use but I don’t know that
Method 2: Registry and PowerShell
