Thank you for your quick replies.

Yes, it looks like we are effected by this issue. 

How can I check, if "DISALLOW_UNINSTALL_APPS" is set on our devices? Intune is a little intransparent on this point.

Unfortunately I am unable to check the Play Store version on the effected devices, because there is no Play Store anymore. So the workaround by uninstalling the Play Store updates is not working for us either. Is it possible to uninstall the updates by ADB?

With ADB I was able to get more information about "com.android.vending".

Maybe you can give me a even better support, if you see our Zero Touch config:

 

 

 

{

    }
}

 

 

 

 

Can I install a working version of the Play Store with a apk?

    Thanks for your reply Tobi. Regarding the management policy for "DISALLOW_UNINSTALL_APPS" I would recommend contacting Intune directly about the configuration here and they can help to direct you further. 

     

    But, looking at the ADB version that the version code does appear to match the Play Recovery Service, so I believe the workaround should also help here. 

     

    Hopefully this help. Do keep us posted if you can. 

     

    Thank you,

    Lizzie
