Can you clarify the position on the retiral of Store for Business? I understand that's postponed but the link to Intune has been cut and Enterprises restricting Windows Store access to Private Only are left with a Store shortcut that no longer works. I appreciate the Company Portal is the way forward in that scenario but there's no settings template to toggle off / hide Store shortcuts on the store availability Intune policy. Are Enterprises to deploy restricted menu tiles to hide the store? (Presumable disable not recommended). I felt the the comms around this didn't seem joined up.

MicrosoftYes, I agree the communication hasn't been stellar. The postponement was driven by a need to preserve the ability to download offline MSfB app packages. This is not yet available in WinGet but is being worked on. So the postponement referred to in some online docs is about that specific functionality. As per previous communications. Retirement of all other services began on March 31st as previously communicated. For Intune specific retirement activities.
