Declared in the Homebrew definition of Microsoft Intune Company Portal.
A label is only a name: several apps can share one, and malware can copy one. These are what apps declare in their Homebrew definitions, not proof that an item on your Mac belongs to them.
What it is
There’s no verified description yet. Below are the apps whose Homebrew definitions declare it, and where items like it usually live.
Apps that declare it
These apps’ Homebrew definitions mention this label. That shows what they declare, not that an item with this label on your Mac belongs to them.
- Microsoft Intune Company Portal
- Package receipt (pkgutil) · removed on uninstallHomebrew definitionChecked Oct 20
Uninstall previews open in OpenNavo: it lists what would be removed first, and nothing happens until you confirm.
Check who it really is
The same label can come from different programs. On your Mac, all of these should match before you treat it as part of an app that declares it:
- Signature: the developer and Team ID match the app’s
- Location: the program it runs sits inside the app or in its developer’s own folder
- Version: it matches the version of the app you installed
Where it usually lives
macOS’s installer keeps package receipts: a record of the files an installer package put on your Mac. You can read one in Terminal with pkgutil --pkg-info com.microsoft.CompanyPortal.
How to turn it off in System Settings
- Open System Settings → General → Login Items & Extensions (Login Items on macOS 13 and 14).
- Under Allow in the Background, find the app or its developer.
- Turn off its switch. Items that run for all users may ask for an administrator password.
Turning it off only stops it from starting automatically; it doesn’t delete any files. Uninstalling the app removes them. If you still use the app, its updates, syncing or other background features may stop working.
Manage it with OpenNavo
If this item is on your Mac, OpenNavo’s Startup Items lists it with its signature, its file location and the app OpenNavo matches it to on your Mac. You can turn it off or remove it there, and restore a removed item later.
Opens a preview only: OpenNavo looks for this label on your Mac and shows what it finds. Nothing is turned off or deleted until you confirm. Requires OpenNavo for Mac.
