In this post I will display how you can hide the chat icon from the taskbar for all users using an Intune Configuration Profile.

Within your Intune admin center, navigate to Devices > Configuration Profiles & click Create Profile.

In the Create a profile pane, select the following:

Platform: Windows 10 and later
Profile type: Settings catalog

Click Create.

Enter a name for your new Configuration Profile.

On the settings screen, click Add Settings.

Search for Widgets
Select the Widgets category
Tick the setting named Allow widgets
Enable the setting

Click Next on the Scope tags screen.

I chose to assign this to All Devices.
Click Next.

Review your settings.

Your new Configuration Profile will then be created.

I then navigated to Devices > All Devices, selected my test VM & clicked the Sync button to force it to check in.

Outcome

Once the profile applies to your devices the setting will take effect.

Thank you for reading.
