Some organizations pursuing a full cloud-native management vision are encountering blockers related to application compatibility, re-packaging, and the scale of existing app estates - all while trying to maintain business continuity, device compliance, and preparing for the AI Copilot era. To address the complex realities of app migration, the Microsoft partner ecosystem has stepped up with specialized offers designed to reduce risk and accelerate cloud adoption. As part of this initiative our Microsoft partners Rimo3 and Robopack are offering no-cost, time-limited app migration service to all Intune customers who are looking to move from ConfigMgr to Intune.

We have a requirement to block users from adding add-ins to Excel and Installing certain application directly which utilize Microsoft Store apps. Below are the two scenarios we need to address. I would appreciate any guidance or recommendations on how to implement these controls. 1) Blocking Excel Add-ins from Microsoft Store Users are currently able to add add-ins such as “Claude by Anthropic in Excel” directly from the Microsoft Store apps. For example, if a user accesses the URL: https://marketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/product/saas/wa200009404?tab=overview they can proceed to add the add-in to Excel. So, We need a method to prevent users from adding Office add-ins from the Microsoft Marketplace or external sources. 2) Blocking Installation of Microsoft Store Apps (e.g., WhatsApp) We are currently blocking Microsoft Store apps on OS level. However, users can still download and install applications such as WhatsApp directly from the vendor website, which utilize Microsoft store apps in backend: https://www.whatsapp.com/download We are considering configuring the Intune policy “Only Private Store is enabled.” However, we noticed that enabling this setting prevents users from accessing certain built-in applications (e.g., Notepad). Is there any other way to block access Microsoft Store apps directly? Thank you in advance for your assistance. DilanReplacing Complex GPO Item-Level Targeting with Intune
Hi All, I’m looking for some advice on the best way to handle this scenario. We’re running a hybrid environment and currently have a GPO that creates 1,000+ registry entries across 150+ user groups using item-level targeting with security groups. Now we need to move this over to Intune, and that’s where things get tricky. Intune doesn’t really offer the same item-level targeting flexibility as GPO. So far, the only workable option seems to be creating 150+ platform scripts or Proactive Remediation scripts, which obviously isn’t ideal from a management perspective. I’m thinking it might be much easier long-term to create one large PowerShell script that checks the logged-in user’s group membership and then applies the appropriate registry settings dynamically. Has anyone dealt with something similar? Is there a cleaner or more scalable approach in Intune? Thanks in advance! Dilan

What are the system requirements for hardware-accelerated BitLocker announced in ignite 2025?
Microsoft has recently announced hardware-accelerated Bitlocker (Ref. Link: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/windows-itpro-blog/announcing-hardware-accelerated-bitlocker/4474609) I would like to know system requirements (Specifically Hardware) that supports this functionality. The article also says below "Coordinate with your suppliers and keep an eye on listings from us and other vendors as PCs become available on the market." But I am unable to find any link for the listing from Microsoft. Does it support all the devices that has TPM 2.0 or does it require any other hardware?
Will Intune device-only subscription get additional value in FY27
Will the Intune device-only subscription (Microsoft Intune announces device-only subscription for shared resources | Microsoft Community Hub) get the additional features which Intune P1 will get in FY27 (Microsoft 365 adds advanced Microsoft Intune solutions at scale - Microsoft Intune Blog), Intune Remote Help, Intune Advanced Analytics and Intune P2? This would have a huge impact of our planning how to manage special purpose devices in production environments without any user affinity. Deploying security and configuration settings, Windows Autopilot for Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC kiosk deployment, Windows Autopatch (servicing), Remote Help and FOTA for Zebra devices would be drivers to add these production devices to Intune.
Cannot enroll azure vm(windows 24H2) in Microsoft company portal
