Focused inbox notification in Outlook
Hi, our customer has disabled Focused inbox on organization level. Now all the users get this yellow notification bar in Outlook saying "The administrator has disabled Focused inbox, click here to activate it anyway". Is there a GPO we can use to disable this warning ? This is generating too much confusion for the users and tickets for helpdesk. Also, is there a way (like a GPO) to hide Focused Inbox toggle button in Outlook ?
BR, Ruslan

RNalivaika Hello, I'm afraid there isn't a GPO for Focused Inbox (not available at getadmx) and it's also detailed here what you can and can't do https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/setup/configure-focused-inbox?view=o365-worldwide
From by browsing the above article my impression is that you shouldn't be able to see the button when disabled. Is the button/feature there for all users?
There is a UserVoice which maybe will include more options if rolled out

ChristianBergstrom thanks for your input.
Focused inbox is turned off at organization level, but all the users still see the toggle button in Outlook.
I will give my vote at uservoice. BR, Ruslan
