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

From your description, I know you want to disable/remove the personal/consumer Teams desktop app on windows 11 devices via Intune policy.

To narrow down the issue, please share with us how you configure the policy, the settings of policy and the policy status in Intune portal.

Moreover, we can create an Intune policy to remove/disable personal teams desktop app.

For more detailed steps, please refer to.

Hi ZhoumingDuan-MSFT

Thanks for reply.

I can see the policy was successfully applied on the devices but still seems Consumer Teams app/chat is not disabled or removed from the devices. What else I can do to disable/remove it as this seems very confusing to end users and not the right app/solution on Windows 11 devices across fleet.
