Disable azure app insights or telemetry from azure for a uwp application

I have a UWP app published to store and is being used by customers. I have hooked application insights for the app which were useful sometime back. I wanted to disable azure telemetry logging. For this, I have updated the build with a few code changes. But there are machines that are still running on our old builds. So in that case is there a way to disable applications insights from logging any further, so that I don't have to delete the insights completely. Thanks in advance

If you don't want to change your code, and the instrumentation key is directly used in the code, I don't think there're any ways to disable the telemetry for a uwp application.

But you can reduce the telemetry data by using Ingestion sampling. You can set the Data sampling value to 1%, so most of the data will be filtered out.

One more suggestion is that, next time, you can put the instrumentation key in a config file. In this case, if you don't want to send the data, just replace it with a false key.
