Suggestion for AD Explorer
I'd like to see a "Refresh (F5)" feature in AD Explorer. Example - I'll open AD Explorer to a user object and find that a mailbox was never enabled for that account. I'll pop-open Powershell and enable the mailbox. Now, back to AD Explorer, the changes made are not reflected. Having a Right-click/Refresh on the object would be much more convenient than disconnecting and reconnecting with the directory. Thanks for the awesome tools that I use daily!190Views0likes2CommentsRe: Outlook Account Suggestion Removal
Deleted - Good suggestion, but no - that doesn't work. The correct email address appears twice in the drop-down menu. I suspect that one of them is a stale/orphaned entry that behind the curtain, points to the tenant where the domain used to be connected. Now the domain is in a different tenant, and we've set the primary SMTP on the new mailboxes to match those from the source tenant. So in the drop down, we see: mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons All three are there, and we want "email address removed for privacy reasons" that is associated with the tenant where "company.com" is the new home for the domain. We need to eliminate ALL of these and let outlook set-up new. We've also opened "Access work or school" accounts in Windows and removed the connection to @@company.onmicrosoft.com, but that doesn't seem to have any effect on New Outlook1.8KViews0likes1CommentRe: Outlook Account Suggestion Removal
Deleted In our case, we have multiple accounts due to an acquisition. The source tenant's emails were added side-by-side with the destination tenant. Then we cut-over the domain and changed the user's destination mailboxes primary SMTP to match what they had in the source tenant. Now the source tenant UPNs are @sourcecompany.onmicrosoft.com. Now in "New Outlook", we cannot set-up an account, because we see these old accounts. Two of which are @sourcecompany.com. I suspect that one of them is now the user's active mailbox in the target tenant with the primary SMTP and the duplicate is a "ghost" of the old connection to the source tenant, which no-longer works. For the life of me, I cannot find anywhere to remove these accounts. They are present on about a hundred Windows PCs. None of these people can use "New Outlook".2KViews1like4CommentsRe: Set Edge home page GPO, but only for work profile
Sheraz_Sarrdar We use Ivanti Environment Manager for our Edge ADMX policies. You can do the same thing with AD or Intune though. Get the latest Edge policy templates from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/business/download (Get policy files). We set these three policies: Action to take on startup - enabled - 4 (Open a list of URLS) Configure the home page URL - enabled - https://urlOfHomePage.html Sites to open when the browser starts - enabled - https://urlOfHomePage.html2KViews0likes1CommentRe: Set Edge home page GPO, but only for work profile
Kelly_Y - There is actually quite a bit of company-confidential info in those policies. One of the policies is "https://docs.microsoft.com/DeployEdge/microsoft-edge-policies#homepagelocation", which sets the intranet URL. That policy exists in both the "work" and "personal" Edge profiles. Are you aware of a means to apply Edge user policies only to the "work" profile, and ignore the personal profile?2.8KViews0likes1CommentSet Edge home page GPO, but only for work profile
We're using the latest Edge ADMX template to set users' home page to our intranet page by policy. However, we're finding that it sets the home page for all Edge profiles for every user. Some users have added their personal profiles to Edge (perfectly okay for us), but the GPO is also setting the home page under that profile. Is there any way to use GPO to set the home page only under the user's "Work" profile, which syncs automatically using their Azure credentials, and leave the personal profile untouched by this policy?3KViews0likes6CommentsGet all license groups
I am looking for a way to get all AzureAD groups that assign licenses using the AzureAD Powershell module. "Get-AzureADGroup" lacks the licensing detail. I know that "Get-MsolGroup -All | Where {$_.Licenses}", but we don't want to leverage the MsolService. module unless we absolutely have to. Thank youSolved11KViews0likes3CommentsRe: Changing Notification Settings for all users on a Team
I completely disagree with the suggestion, and like the notifications the way they are. I don't want all the members of a team to be notified with every conversation and every reply. That's too much communication and diminishes the usefulness of the tool. If the poster intends everyone to be notified, They simply @mention the channel or the entire team. That's easy and efficient. Otherwise, conversations without specific mentions to users, channels or the team can be considered just a conversation within a room, without directing it at anyone in particular. Those conversations are available to the members to view and respond, but their attention is not required. It's a great concept for projects where lots of people interact. Keep the conversation in the appropriate channel, and only @mention the people who MUST see it.135KViews0likes12CommentsRe: Hide retention policy tags on email?
PeterRising - Thank you for your reply. We're not looking for a platform-specific policy. In-fact, we already have the registry value in our toolbox for the Windows outlook. We are looking for a way to hide the tag on all platforms - Web, Mac, etc. The actions of the tag/labels are not important for this effort. We are looking for just the ability to hide the tag itself.11KViews0likes3CommentsHide retention policy tags on email?
We have a default retention policy applied to mailboxes inside the Exchange Online admin console. We haven't migrated to SCC retention yet. That tag is visible at the top of every email on outlook.office.com, Windows Outlook and Mac Outlook. I don't see it on Android or iOS Outlook. Is it possible to hide retention tags, organization-wide with O365? We found a registry setting to hide it with Windows Outlook, but that is insufficient. Thank you11KViews0likes5CommentsRe: External Sharing with Stream or Video
mbowgren, you are missing the point. As part of the O365 suite, Stream should be able to share externally with specific people - just like all the other O365 services. My company would like to share videos with our non-employee distributor partners. A generic guest link would give the experience of YouTube, but those are generally frowned-upon in the enterprise, and are typically disabled.
