**TL;DR:** Disable manual MDM unenrollment on Windows devices via Applivery policy to maintain control and security compliance.

By default, Windows allows users to manually disconnect their Device from a Mobile Device Management (MDM) provider. In managed environments, this can pose a risk, as it enables end users to bypass security or compliance configurations. To maintain control and ensure persistent management, you can disable this option by configuring a Policy.

## Disabling manual MDM removal

**Navigate to Policies**

Once in the [**Applivery Dashboard**](https://dashboard.applivery.io/), head to **Policies** 1. Choose the Policy where you want to add this configuration.

**Add Configuration**

In the left-hand menu, select **\+ Add configuration** 2, and search for **Experience** 3.

**Disable Manual Unenrollment**

Locate the **Allow Manual MDM Unenrollment** setting and set its value to **0**. This will prevent users from manually unenrolling the Device from Applivery.
