Stop auto install Microsoft Store apps
Hi, Does anybody know a manner to stop downloading/ installing all the apps from the Microsoft Store as soon as an user logs in to the store (Xbox, Skype, CodeWriter etc)? I`m doing some testing...

I am not sure about it stopping installing other apps, we definitely saw an improvement.
We added the app to our Business store, synced to Intune and then send and assign the app with the action "Uninstall"
We found the uninstall request from the mdm actioned before it downloaded the bloatware.

Seems to work for me. I now realize there are a lot of unwanted apps.
Strange thing is all apps are uninstalled but after a while Code Writer and Sway are installed again. Maybe because of Windows updates or something?
Have you noticed any difference in assigning the uninstall to user or device groups?
