Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you all are doing well and staying healthy out there!

Here is a look at what’s been going on in the MTC this week…

MTC Moments of the Week

Over on the blogs this week, @JoshBregman and @Matt_Call announced expanded Microsoft Defender for Endpoint tamper protection to cover antivirus exclusions, a highly requested feature!

And good news – you’ll soon be able to keep custom bookable time in Outlook, which you can read more about in @Vikram2011’s latest post.

Next week, we are back in the swing of community events with not one but TWO Ask Microsoft Anything’s (AMA’s):

Windows 365 for Gov AMA – Tuesday, January 17, 2023, 06:30 AM – 7:30 AM (PST)

Microsoft Loop AMA - Tuesday, January 17, 2023, 09:00 AM - 10:00 AM (PST)

So, mark your calendars and bring your questions, and we’ll see you there!

And since I forgot to update the Member of the Week widget last week (my brain just totally blanked on that one!), I'll allow last week's MotW Robert to hold that spot and get some time to shine before choosing a new one next week!

Unanswered Questions - Can you help them out?

Every week, users come to the MTC seeking guidance or technical support for their Microsoft solutions, and we want to help highlight a few of these each week in the hopes of getting these questions answered by our amazing community!

In the Excel forum, @Denis675 is working with multiple linked workbooks and is looking for help figuring out why the relative file links are being changed to absolute links when copying the workbooks to another drive.

Meanwhile, over in the Intune forum, @Stefan Kießig is seeking help managing user rights when registering a device in the Company Portal of Endpoint Manager.

Have any ideas to help them out?

And lastly, for your fun fact of the week… Did you know that "strengths" is the longest word in the English language with only one vowel? Yep - nine letters, eight of them consonants. The more you know!
