Power Automate
Good afternoon all, I am working with a non for-profit organization. I am slowly trying to implement processes to manage 365 for them as most of them are not tech savy. I have been playing around with power automate (not too familiar with it myself) in order to create a user and add it to certain teams' groups and mail distribution groups. So far I have managed to get it to create the account and add the user to the teams group. However, in doing my research I have found Microsoft has removed the functionality to add users to a mail distribution group. Is there a way around this that I can implement? I came across this article but am not sure from here https://damobird365.com/add-members-to-a-distribution-list/ Thanks all for your help."In Review" means what? Can't message Allen"
I am a VM in Q&A (Office) and have been a participant here in the Word Community for some time. Recently I've notice the tag "In Review" on my posts. Here is an example: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/word/dynamic-pages-in-mail-merge/4531584/ What does this mean? Am I doing something wrong? I tried to send a message to Allen but do not believe it went through. When I click on "Send Message" it seems to be processing and then "Send Message" comes back active. When I checked in my profile under sent messages, nothing shows up for this. Thanks in advance. Charles KenyonAre there any tools recommended to respond to unanswered questions quickly?
Hello, I want to quickly and efficiently identify unanswered questions so I can help answer them. Are there any clients or tools that can filter on unanswered questions? Currently the web client is not that great for this because when I answer an unanswered questions, I then have to scroll all the way back down to where I left off which slows the whole process down. This makes it difficult for experts to use Tech Communities to help answer questions. Any other tips or advice for answering questions in the most efficient way possible is welcome and appreciated. Help me help you! Thanks, Joe
Laptop ignoring Windows 11 security updates
My laptop (with an Intel processor) has not recognised Windows 11 Security Updates 2026-04 and 2026-05. Each time I have got an installation failed message; when I re-try, I get the Windows up-to-date message. My Windows update history currently shows 2026-03 as the latest security update, and the latest is Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool x64 - v5.141 (KB890830) installed this week on 13 May 26. In contrast, my wife’s Samsung laptop (with a Snapdragon ARM 64 processor) is fully up-to-date with Security Update 2026-05 installed this week. Should I be worried about the recent lack of Windows Security Updates?👋 Welcome to the Microsoft Tech Community!
