Hi Team,

I want to know the reason why I'm not able to delete few of the Google Play Store app from Intune while deletion of other google plat store app works fine for me. I also elevated from account rights to global admin from Intune Admin but still getting the same issue. As we can see in below attached image the delete option is blur for me.

Can anyone let me know the reason behind this and how I can delete these apps from Intune?

Thanks!

Shreya.

    Hi Shreya

    The app might have already removed from Managed Play store. Intune usually leaves the entry so that the app can be assigned to Uninstall from user devices. Details below

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/intune/intune-service/apps/apps-add-android-for-work#delete-managed-google-play-apps

    If an app is unapproved or deleted from the managed Google Play store, it will not be removed from the Intune client apps list. This allows you to still target an uninstall policy to users even if the app is unapproved.

    Please mark this as answer , if this helps!

    Cheers!

    Hello Siya,

    As I can see, delete option is not enabled for you, so delete option is likely disabled because the app "Managed Home Screen" is not assigned. In the Assigned column, the app shows "No," which usually means that certain actions—like deletion—are restricted until the app is assigned. You might need to assign the app first or check if there are specific policies preventing deletion.

    Please let me know if this post was helpful for you.
