+28A quick-and-dirty Jamf Pro Policy hack for testing Microsoft_Office_Reset_2.0.0.pkg
Office-Reset is a free downloadable tool from @pbowden that Mac Admins can use to fix problems and errors encountered with Microsoft Office for Mac apps and version 2.0 Beta 1 includes more than two dozen changes.
The following quick-and-dirty hack will allow Jamf Pro admins to easy deploy the entire Microsoft_Office_Reset_2.0.0.pkg during the beta phase before the app-specific .PKGs are available.
+1I think this tool is great. I'd like to deploy it via policy for a specific macro security message on Word and Excel due to Adobe plug-in/add-in. How can I configure the policy to just reset Word and Excel? Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much! I noticed in the add-in removal script, there is a portion that closes Word, Excel, and Powerpoint. I would like to silently deploy this. The idea would be to completely avoid the users from getting the macro pop-ups. Rather than them getting it, being instructed to go to the self-service portal to run the policy. So the script is a little intrusive if I were to silently deploy it on a recurring a recurring check-in or similar recurring scenario. It would just random kill those apps. Any suggestions? or maybe I am misunderstanding the process.
