About this tag
Endpoint file activity on WindowsForum.com covers how Microsoft surfaces and scores file operations from managed Windows endpoints, especially inside Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management. The tagged discussion looks at a planned change to filter routine temporary-file operations out of the Activity explorer and risk scoring, a roadmap item aimed at reducing investigation noise for administrators. It notes the change concerns endpoint file activity rather than a Windows update, with preview and general availability dates still ahead. Practical questions remain about which filenames Microsoft recognizes and how the filter behaves during real investigations, so the tag is best for following Purview endpoint monitoring and tuning.
