New enhancements for SharePoint and OneDrive enable organizations to automatically override manually applied sensitivity labels and remove labels at scale on Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files. These capabilities help ensure data remains correctly classified as policies, labels, and business requirements evolve—reducing reliance on manual user updates and improving consistency for data at rest across Microsoft 365.
