Automatically start Windows App at startup

Thu, 25 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000

In some cases we want to automatically start the Windows App for connections to AVD and Windows 365 at startup. We can achieve this through different ways which I will describe in this post.

Creating the Intune script

We can achieve this with Intune using a PowerShell script. As Intune doesn’t support login/startup scripts, we have to create a Platform script that creates a Scheduled Task in Windows for us. This is a great way, as this is visible at the client side and can be disabled pretty easily.

Deploy Google Chrome Single Sign On with Intune

Thu, 11 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000

When deploying Google Chrome with Microsoft Intune, users still have to manually login with their credentials into Microsoft Online websites. Microsoft Edge has built-in Single Sign On (SSO) for users who already logged in with their Microsoft account to their computer.

However, there is a Chrome extension published by Microsoft themselves which allows users to also have this Single Sign On experience into Google Chrome.

On this page I will show how this extension works, what the advantages are and how we can deploy this with Microsoft Intune. I will share both a Configuration Policy and a PowerShell script option where you may choose which one to use.

Disable Windows Taskbar Widgets through Intune

Today a short guide on how to disable Windows Taskbar widgets through Intune. I mean this part of the Windows 11 taskbar:

Method 1: Settings Catalog

The easiest way to disable these widgets is through a Settings Catalog policy. Open up Microsoft Intune admin center and create a new policy through the Settings Catalog.

Search for “widget” and these options are available:

News and Interests: Disable Widgets on Lockscreen
News and Interests: Disable Widgets Board
Widgets: Allow Widgets

Microsoft just released a new feature, Windows Backup for Organizations, which is a revolution on top of the older Enterprise State Roaming.

Windows Backup for Organizations will help you and your users by saving different components of your Windows installation to make a the proces of a new installation or computer much easier. Especially when used with Windows Autopilot, this is a great addition to the whole Windows/Intune ecosystem.

In this guide I will dive into how it works, what is backed up and excluded and how to configure and use it.

Remove Pre-installed Windows Store Apps with Intune

Tue, 21 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Since the latest Windows 25H2 update, we have a great new feature. We can now remove pre-installed Windows Store Applications which we don’t want to ship with our devices. This helps us alot with both Windows 365 and Azure Virtual Desktop Personal deployments as with normal Intune-joined devices. The only downside is that Pooled Azure Virtual Desktop Deployments are not supported.

In this guide I will dive into this new setting and explain how to configure this and why this is a great update. The step-by-step guide shows how I have configured a policy that removes most of the non-productive apps from my PC.
