Announcing new Office Insider Group Policy setting

Hi, I’m Susan Cockrell, a Senior PM for the Office Insider team, with an exciting new update about the program to share with you.

We’ve been listening to your feedback and have heard from IT Admins that they’d like an easier way to give end-users the ability to opt-in to the Office Insider program. So, if you’re an IT Admin and you already use Group Policy, you can now give a select group of Windows users the option to install Office Insider builds for themselves by using the Show the option for Office Insider policy setting. When you enable this new policy setting, the Office Insider option will appear under File > Account for those users.

Learn more about how to give your users the option to install Office Insider builds by using Group Policy here.

And if you have any questions about how this works, please reach out to us on Twitter or the Answers forum and we’ll get right back to you!
