• Allows existing devices that are managed by Configuration Manager to be enrolled in Microsoft Intune using Co-management without any user interaction. It does not require an active user to be logged in, and there are no Multi Factor Authentication (MFA) prompts. This update also allows the Co-managed mobile device management (MDM) enrollment to use the device credential it received when the device is enabled to join Hybrid Azure Active Directory (AADJ).

• Addresses boot failure issues that occur when you restart certain hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) virtual machines.

• Addresses an issue that causes a roaming profile user to lose customized Start menu settings after upgrading the operating system (OS).

This key allows you to create a new RUP for an upgraded OS and prevents the loss of a custom Start menu. The RUP must be stored locally, and you must restart the device to enable the feature.

• Addresses an issue that causes connection requests to the Remote Desktop Session Host (RDSH) servers in the deployment to fail. This issue occurs because of a deadlock in the Connection Broker.

• Improves results when provisioning printers in educational environments that include multifunction printers.

• Addresses an issue that prevents access to Server Message Block (SMB) shares on or from SMB-enabled physical or virtual network interface cards (NIC) that are configured with a virtual private network (VPN) interface.

• Addresses an issue that prevents Print Workflow Applications from launching for Point and Print.

• Addresses an issue that may prevent Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps from receiving keyboard input when its user interface thread becomes too busy. This issue occurs when the UWP app has an embedded WebView control.
