Allow end user to Uninstall apps from the MS Store connected to Intune

Question

Hi Community,

We´d like to know if it´s possible to have the MS Store connected to Intune and from there allow what applications will be available for the end user. Once the applications are available and the users are able to install it, we need to know if there is a way to prevent or allow the user to see the "UNINSTALL" option for each app on the MS Store in order to allow him not only to install any app but also uninstall it when needed. We need to be sure that the uninstall option can be managed from Intune to allow us to handle this option application by application.

Thanks in advance!

@Leonardo Gabriel Zaccagnino Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

Currently, there is no method that can prevent the user to see the "uninstall" option. If you are interested in this feature, it is suggested to post in intune feedback portal. It is a place to collect customers' requirements and problems. Here is the link:

Hope it will happen in the future.

Hi Leonardo

The uninstall feature is currently in development: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/fundamentals/in-development#uninstall-win32-apps-in-the-company-portal

However as a temporary workaround you could make a WIN32 application that acts as an uninstaller and make that available in the Comapny Portal too.

Thanks,
