Event details
Microsoftcdadm Great question and I understand the confusion. Microsoft 365 Business Premium includes licensing rights for Windows 11 Pro — there is no official "Windows 11 Business" edition/SKU in the Windows product lineup. What you're likely seeing is a display inconsistency.
When a device is activated via subscription with M365 Business Premium, Windows may report the edition name differently depending on where you look (Settings app vs. Intune vs. winver). The underlying edition should be Pro, and CSP policies compatible with Pro should apply correctly.
A few things to check:
- Run slmgr /dli on the affected devices to confirm the actual activated edition.
- Ensure the devices had a qualifying base license (Windows 10/11 Pro) before the M365 Business Premium license was assigned — subscription activation upgrades Pro, but won't upgrade Home.
- The device showing "Enterprise" in Intune but "Business" locally may have a stale record in Intune — try syncing the device.
If the base OS is actually Pro and policies like RequirePrivateStoreOnly still aren't applying, check the CSP documentation for that specific policy's edition requirements, as some settings require Enterprise. M365 Business Premium does not grant Enterprise — you'd need M365 E3/E5 or a standalone Windows Enterprise license for that.
Fantastic clarification, thank you Joe! Would be interested in seeing this get updated in the documentation so there is a clear understanding of where we would see Pro vs Business, because I can see this question coming up again when someone sees their edition as "Business".
