Hello there!
I am an analist support from an it company and we're looking for a way to block or remove Microsoft Store from all Windows 10 Home and Pro editions.
We don't use Windows Server, so I can't use gpo solutions, that's why i'm searching for a powershell solution / window's registry or something like that.
I have to implement the solution specifically directly at the user's login.
Do you guys have any tips? Thanks!
A dirty way to do it.
Disable the Windows Firewall service on each workstation that you want to enforce that. Windows Store depend on it, it will block all your users interaction with it.
A more beautiful way to do it if your sku allow it;
Use the local group policy on each workstation (Run -> gpedits.msc), Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Store, Store Application -> set to Disabled.
Hi yagmoth555!
Thanks for you sugestion but i cannot do this because I am working in several devices from a company.
I can the in my personal device but in my job i can't allow that haha!
Have a nice week!
Hi, the gpedits.msc solution would work and is professional. A script at login can be bypassed or removed easily, but I really suggest adding a domain for GPO. The time you would save by micro managing device that way would cover up the price of the server license by itselft IMO
