Learn the difference between enlightened and unenlightened apps, and then review the list of enlightened apps provided by Microsoft along with the text you will need to use to add them to your allowed apps list.

Enlightened versus unenlightened apps

Apps can be enlightened or unenlightened:

  • Enlightened apps can differentiate between corporate and personal data, correctly determining which to protect, based on your policies.

  • Unenlightened apps consider all data corporate and encrypt everything. Typically, you can tell an unenlightened app because:

    • Windows Desktop shows it as always running in enterprise mode.

    • Windows Save As experiences only allow you to save your files as enterprise.

  • WIP-work only apps are unenlightened line-of-business apps that have been tested and deemed safe for use in an enterprise with WIP and Mobile App Management (MAM) solutions without device enrollment. Unenlightened apps that are targeted by WIP without enrollment run under personal mode.

List of enlightened Microsoft apps

Microsoft has made a concerted effort to enlighten several of our more popular apps, including the following:

  • Microsoft 3D Viewer

  • Microsoft Edge

  • Internet Explorer 11

  • Microsoft People

  • Mobile Office apps, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and Outlook Mail and Calendar

  • Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise apps, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and Outlook

  • OneDrive app

  • OneDrive sync client (OneDrive.exe, the next generation sync client)

  • Microsoft Photos

  • Groove Music

  • Notepad

  • Microsoft Paint

  • Microsoft Movies & TV

  • Microsoft Messaging

  • Microsoft Remote Desktop

  • Microsoft To Do

Note

Microsoft Visio, Microsoft Office Access, Microsoft Project, and Microsoft Publisher are not enlightened apps and need to be exempted from WIP policy. If they are allowed, there is a risk of data loss. For example, if a device is workplace-joined and managed and the user leaves the company, metadata files that the apps rely on remain encrypted and the apps stop functioning.

Microsoft still has apps that are unenlightened, but which have been tested and deemed safe for use in an enterprise with WIP and MAM solutions.

  • Skype for Business

  • Microsoft Teams (build 1.3.00.12058 and later)
