RequirePrivateStoreOnly for Windows professional
Hello, We are working on Autopilot and I would like to authorize only the private microsoft Store. Not the public one. To all users. I see that : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/client-...
- Jul 07, 2021Hi,
I did a blog on this subject some time ago. Please beware, removing the whole store or limiting access could give you some problems when modern apps need updates! And of course the Microsoft store is also responsible for some driver updates like I explain in another blog..
I hopes these 2 blogs help you

Thanks for your help to both of you.
Mr_Helaas, I understand your solution. I didn't know that I can completly block the store.
Rudy_Ooms_MVP, thanks for your links. I read and I see how to block the store. Didn't try yet.
In what I understood the unique solution is to block completly the store and use the method of Mr_Helaas . But in this cas I could have problem with drivers? They will not update?
- Jul 08, 2021It depends on which option you choose to block it and how you block it. If you block it user mode.. When only the user is blocked, the device should still be able to get the updates and update the modern apps
- MichaelOlivJul 08, 2021Iron ContributorOk. So the better is to apply this : 3.Preventing access to the whole Microsoft App Store
And to assign to all users and not all devices?
