    @Vinod Survase,Thanks for posting in Q&A.

    From your description, I know you are looking for how to disable MS Store apps and Consumer Teams chat from taskbar via Intune.

    Based on my testing, we can refer the method @JatinMakhija mentioned and create two policies to disable MS Store apps and Consumer Teams chat from taskbar via Intune.

    Hope this can be helpful, if there is any update, feel free to contact me.

    I use this in Settings Catalog \ Start \ Start Layout XML and I assign this to users.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LayoutModificationTemplate xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/Start/2014/LayoutModification" xmlns:defaultlayout="http://schemas.microsoft.com/Start/2014/FullDefaultLayout" xmlns:start="http://schemas.microsoft.com/Start/2014/StartLayout" xmlns:taskbar="http://schemas.microsoft.com/Start/2014/TaskbarLayout" Version="1"> <CustomTaskbarLayoutCollection PinListPlacement="Replace"> defaultlayout:TaskbarLayout taskbar:TaskbarPinList <taskbar:UWA AppUserModelID ="Microsoft.CompanyPortal_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App"/> <taskbar:UWA AppUserModelID ="MicrosoftTeams_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App"/> </taskbar:TaskbarPinList> </defaultlayout:TaskbarLayout> </CustomTaskbarLayoutCollection> </LayoutModificationTemplate>

    If copy paste will not show correctly, here is the screenshot from it.

    Idea is, that with Replace, your existing icons will be gone.
