Of course, once I know the registry keys, used by the Group Policy, I can also use Configuration Baselines to do something similar. I will show the Group Policy settings, related to updating the Office 365 clients, and I’ll show how those settings relate to the initial installation and configuration settings.

In this post I will provide the required information about using Group Policy to enable the existing Office 365 clients to receive update via ConfigMgr.
