Microsoft restricts non-essential features to keep Office 365 running during virus outbreak-CnTechPost

With the rapid spread of the new crown virus epidemic in the past few weeks, more and more people around the world have been forced to stay at home, which has also led to rapid growth in the global use of Office 365, causing employees to have connection problems when working remotely from home.

As a result, Microsoft adjusted Office 365 in a timely manner to prevent problems such as downtime and functional failures, and the practice was to limit certain non-essential features of the productivity suite.

Microsoft has restricted the unnecessary features of Office 365 to reduce the use of resources without affecting your normal work, thereby ensuring that everyone can get smooth performance without downtime.

In the management message center, in a notification from Microsoft to Office 365, Microsoft explained some of the features that are being restricted, including the interval at which the system checks for updates, the video resolution, and the interval at which the other party types.

Microsoft said:

To best support our Microsoft 365 customers worldwide and accommodate new growth and demand during these unprecedented times, we're making temporary adjustments to select non-essential capabilities.

We do not expect these changes to have significant impact on the end users experience but wanted to make you aware.
