These 3 registry keys will help you block the rollout of Outlook NEW which is like a lot of Microsoft products a half baked solution that is being pushed by force to push something new.

This key hides the “Try new Outlook” toggle in the top right:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\General
name HideNewOutlookToggle
type REG_DWORD
data 0x1 (1)

These key disables migration to new Outlook:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\General
name DoNewOutlookAutoMigration
type REG_DWORD
data 0x0 (0)

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software\Policies\Microsoft\office\16.0\outlook\preferences
name NewOutlookMigrationUserSetting
type REG_DWORD
data 0x0 (0)

If OneDrive and Microsoft 365 credentials are not being saved in your FSLogix deployment (Azure Virtual Desktop, Citrix etc.) this registry key might help you. There is also a corresponding GPO that does the same.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FSLogix\Profiles

DWORD – RoamIdentity

Value – 1

Here are 2 quick lines of code that help you uninstall a Program:

$Prog = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object{$_.Name -match “ProgramName”}
$Prog.Uninstall()

If you need to deploy a MS Store App for example through Intune or GPO, here is my script:

First of all you need the App ID of the store app. Go to https://apps.microsoft.com/ search for the app and select it. In the URL you will see something like this: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9nw77489ngj0?hl=en-us&gl=US. 9nw77489ngj0 is the App ID.

Now the script:

Start-Transcript -Path “C:\3cx_msstore.log”

$appid=”9NW77489NGJ0″

winget install -e –id $appid –source msstore –accept-source-agreements –accept-package-agreements

winget upgrade –id $appid

Stop-Transcript

This KQL query helps you compute the user’s session duration in the last 30 days.

WVDConnections
| where State in (“Started”, “Connected”, “Completed”) // Filter relevant states
| where TimeGenerated >= ago(30d) // Get records from the last 30 days
| summarize
StartTime = minif(TimeGenerated, State == “Started”), // Earliest time for “Started”
EndTime = maxif(TimeGenerated, State == “Completed”), // Latest time for “Completed”
HasConnected = countif(State == “Connected”) > 0, // Check for “Connected” event presence
SessionHostName = anyif(SessionHostName, State == “Started”) // Capture the server name associated with the session
by CorrelationId, UserName
| extend DurationMinutes = iff(HasConnected and isnotnull(StartTime) and isnotnull(EndTime),
datetime_diff(“minute”, EndTime, StartTime),
-1) // Use -1 as a placeholder for invalid durations
| where DurationMinutes >= 0 // Filter out invalid durations (those set to -1)
| extend SessionDurationHours = DurationMinutes / 60.0 // Calculate duration in hours
| project UserName, CorrelationId, StartTime, EndTime, DurationMinutes, SessionDurationHours, SessionHostName
| order by StartTime desc // Order by StartTime for clarity

The output looks something like this:
