Disable incessant nagware popups
I don't know about everyone else, but I am sick and tired of the nagware pop ups in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, etc. Every single product harasses me with pop ups trying to tell me "hey, did you know this feature was here?", "you can do this if you click that", "let me hold your hand through using products you've used for decades even though you don't want daddy Microslop to do that". This is a prime example. I keep getting the same ones again and again and again and everything I've read indicates they should only appear once. But they don't. They keep coming back like a psychotic stalker ex who wants alimony even though you were never married. How do I get this nagware to stop?!Microsoft 365 Backup Launches File-Level Restore
The Microsoft 365 Backup solution will soon be able to restore individual files and folders instead of complete sites. That’s a welcome upgrade to restore capabilities to cover situations like the inadvertent deletion of a file. It’s a wonder why Microsoft didn’t make more about this capability when they celebrated SharePoint’s 25th anniversary last week when they discussed departmental billing for Microsoft 365 Backup. https://office365itpros.com/2026/03/11/microsoft-365-backup-file-restore/
How to restore a single file deleted 6 months ago - using M365 Backup?
My friend's company uses Sharepoint Online, but relevant folders are synced to their OneDrive so they manage everything in File Explorer. I have Microsoft 365 Backup enabled on their Sharepoint site. This company has all the parent folders in "Site Contents". These folders include Sales, HR, Clients, etc. I need to restore a single file out of Sales but it appears I need to restore the entire site first, sync the Sales folder from the site ending in /R0 to my OneDrive, then copy/paste from my File Explorer. Yes, I am a NOOB in Sharepoint. What's the right way to grab this file? And if it's ditching M365 Backup, then that's what I'll do, but I still need to get this file.
