I have noticed that the Office pack on our Intune-managed devices is not being updated. We pushed M365 Office applications to the devices, but when the app was configured, it was set to install a specific version. Is there any way to easily update the apps without having to reinstall on all the devices?

    In Settings Catalog, there are many settings of Office update functionality. You should enable them. There you can also change the update channel version, but it might reinstall the office (it shouldn't be a big deal).
