Microsoft Tenant-to-Tenant Migration Orchestrator
Microsoft has launched a tenant-to-tenant migration orchestrator solution in public preview to migrate mailboxes, OneDrive accounts, and Teams chat between tenants. ISVs have been active in the T2T space for a long time. They probably won’t welcome the new Microsoft offering, but at least the migration orchestrator legitimizes the concept of tenant-to-tenant migration. https://office365itpros.com/2025/12/19/tenant-to-tenant-orchestrator/
LitigationHold Delayholdapplied and Managed Folder Assistant
Hello All, I have a set of mailboxes with LitigationHoldEnabled = True, and I need to remove Litigation Hold from them. My understanding is that after I remove Litigation Hold from an Exchange Online mailbox, the next time the Managed Folder Assistant (MFA) processes the mailbox, it will detect the hold removal and then set DelayHoldApplied = True. This begins the 30-day delay hold period. My question is: Will any retention policies delete data in the time window between removing Litigation Hold and the moment MFA processes the mailbox and sets DelayHoldApplied = True My understanding is "Even though DelayHoldApplied is not yet visible (or True) before MFA processes it, Exchange Online automatically protects the mailbox from deletions immediately after hold removal, before MFA applies Delay Hold" I want to ensure that no data is deleted during this transitional period. Kindly advice with supporting article if possible. Regards Afsar
What is the best way to collaborate between two organizations with Teams?
Hello, I have a Microsoft 365 Business Standard account, and I am the administrator (currently, my Microsoft 365 organization only has one account, mine). I want to configure my Teams account to collaborate with members of another organization who also use Microsoft 365 Business. I have tried several solutions, without success. My goal is to be able to chat online, schedule and organize virtual meetings, and share documents online with members of the other organization via Teams. What is the best way to set up simple and intuitive collaboration between two organizations using Microsoft 365 Business? Thank you in advance for your help.
Multiple word documents are open simultaneously causing performance issues.
Does anyone know what the optimal size of Word documents should be if you have multiple word documents open simultaneously? I frequently access two Word documents at are about 800KB each. When I have both open, I notice a significant performance degradation when I do searches, add/modify/delete contact, toggle between the documents. This really impacts my productivity. I am wondering I should reduce the size of these files or move them to a different drive or memory stick to improve performance. I don't want to break these documents up yet given that instead of having two Word documents open, I might have four Word documents open simultaneously and still have the performance issues. I have performed online repairs of Microsoft 365 and checked my addins but nothing seems to help.

What's going on with office.com / web apps?
I'm aware that Microsoft had already chosen to upend usability once by changing office.com into 😡m365.cloud.microsoft😡 and make accessing web apps more difficult. This week I found they're hidding applications even further by burying them at the bottom of the page behind another menu - even when "pinned". Below are two screenshots of the 😡m365.cloud.microsoft😡 portal from different accounts that were created on the same day and accessed from the same computer and web browser via admin priveledges. I have observed this discrepency more than once with various accounts. Can someone explain the rational for Microsoft continuing to further bury office applications from users? Am I unaware of a new portal to access the Office applications our users rely upon every day?
