Description
The "Office Feedback" tool, also called "Send-a-Smile", allows a user to click on an icon and send feedback to Microsoft. The "Office Feedback" Tool must be configured to be disabled. In the event that the Office Feedback Tool has not been configured correctly as disabled, this policy configures whether the uploading of screenshots via the tool is allowed and should also be disabled. Uploading screenshots to a commercial vendor from a DoD computer may unintentionally reveal configuration and/or FOUO content.
