Please help me to suppress welcome screen of Skype for business 16.24.0.191v. for Mac
,Welcome screen
Are there any Preferences aplicable to Skype for Business on iOs?
It may help to point customers to Workgroup Manager to avoid configuring this on a per user basis: [ see Client Management in the Mac OS X Server area of the Apple Web site (www.apple.com/server). For detailed information about managing preferences with Workgroup Manager, see the Mac OS X Server User Management documentation available for download on the Apple Web site (www.apple.com/server/documentation). ]
Thank you for sharing this information, bwilson.
