Managing M365-activated Devices
- Navigate to myHill.
- Click on the App launcher (aka the “waffle” 𓃑 )in the top-left corner of the window and select Microsoft 365.
- Select Install Microsoft 365 from the Install and more drop down menu.
- Below the install links you will see a section labeled DEVICES. When installed on non-Stonehill owned devices, the device name will be listed in this section.
- When given the option to deactivate a particular installation by clicking the Sign out link next to the device name. Signing out of an install of Microsoft 365 frees up a license, but does not remove the software from your machine, it just puts Office into reduced functionality mode (you can only view files, not create or edit).
