Hey all - is there an easy way to remove this from our macs. Have tried a few scripts which are failing to resolve the issue:

As far as I am aware no, there is very little you can do to Office with scripts anymore and I am not aware of any user preferences you can set with scripts for Office. I suggest opening a ticket with Microsoft to be sure.

Really Jamf doesn’t offer a solution?


The Outlook Signature is saved to this location:


˘/Library/Group\\ Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/Outlook/Outlook\\ 15\\ Profiles/Main\\ Profile/Data/Signature/ 


@skhan619 I haven't tried it personally, but deploying a Configuration Profile setting the value of the DisableDefaultAppSignature key to true for the com.microsoft.Outlook prefs domain should prevent that. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365-apps/mac/preferences-outlook#disable-default-signature for more details, and that document also lists all of the documented configurations options for the Mac version of Outlook.

Nice one that fixed it!
