Supported on v2105 or later

What it does

NOTE: Once this policy is Enabled or Disabled, setting it back to Not Configured has NO EFFECT. This setting cleans out stale entries created by the Windows Push Notification Platform (WPN) and Windows Notification Facility (WFN) which under some conditions leads to slow sign-ins. Only enable this setting if directed by a Microsoft Support Engineer. Registry Entry: HKLM\SOFTWARE\FSLogix\Profiles\CleanOutNotifications Type: DWORD Values: 0 = Disabled, 1 = Enabled

  • Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
