Remove Device Everywhere – Because Microsoft Thought 3 Portals Was a Good Idea

Hey you

Let me guess… You’re trying to clean up devices.

You open:

  • Intune
  • Entra ID
  • AutoPilot

… and suddenly you’re playing Where’s Waldo: Enterprise Edition

Same Device… Different names… Different states… Different portals.

No clue which one is the real one

Welcome to Device Hell

Let’s break it down:

  • Device exists in Intune
  • Also in Entra ID
  • Also in AutoPilot
  • Maybe renamed… maybe not… good luck… 👍

And then:

  • One is compliant
  • One is stale
  • One hasn’t checked in since 2022
  • One says “Last seen: yesterday”

Perfect. Love it. No notes.

So, what do people do?

Manual cleanup. Click… search… delete… repeat…

Across 3 portals… for HOURS

Introducing: Remove Device Everywhere

One GUI, one search, one action.

Across:

  • Intune
  • Entra ID
  • AutoPilot

What it actually does:

  • 🔍 Search by device name or serial
  • 📊 Combine results from multiple sources into ONE view
  • 👀 Show preview before deleting anything
  • 🧹 Remove selected devices or everything found
  • 🔗 Optional: remove linked records automatically
  • 📁 Bulk mode via CSV
  • 📝 Full audit logging (because… CAB is watching 👀)

Example

You search:

Device: ENG-LAPTOP-01
SourceStatus
IntuneExists
Entra IDStale
AutopilotRegistered

Instead of opening 3 portals… you just click:

Remove Everywhere

euhm.. that’s it… I… euhm… don’t know what else to write right now…

Oh the links…
