Scope:

[!div class = "checklist"]

  • Device

Added in Windows 10, version 1703. Allows IT Admins the ability to disable the "Microsoft Account Sign-In Assistant" (wlidsvc) NT service.

Note

 If the MSA service is disabled, Windows Update will no longer offer feature updates to devices running Windows 10 1709 or higher. See Feature updates are not being offered while other updates are.

Note

If the MSA service is disabled, the Subscription Activation feature will not work properly and your users will not be able to “step-up” from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Enterprise, because the MSA ticket for license authentication cannot be generated. The machine will remain on Windows 10 Pro and no error will be displayed in the Activation Settings app.

The following list shows the supported values:

  • 0 - Disabled.
  • 1 (default) - Manual start.
