Strange update behaviour with M365 Apps for Enterprise
Ben-neB if this is due to a policy, you can confirm by checking the following registry locations:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\office\16.0\common\officeupdate
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\cloud\office\16.0\Common\officeupdate
@BobClements I took another look at the registry and you were right - I found the other registry key containing settings for Office:
"HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\cloud\office\16.0\Common\officeupdate"
(the default path is ...\Policies\Microsoft\office\16.0\...)
There the updatepath value was set to the CDN URL for Monthly Enterprise. I switched that to Beta and now it stays on Beta. I think this has something to do with the MS security baselines which I imported some months ago.
Thanks BobClements for pointing me into the right direction!
Best
