Introduction
On the same day that Microsoft announced Windows 11, comes Technical Preview 2106 and it’s full of new features, I mean really full ! The list of what’s new is humongous.
A few of my favorite changes in this release are:
- Convert a CMG to virtual machine scale set
- Co-management node renamed to Cloud Attach
- Client encryption uses AES-256
- Implicit uninstall of applications
Starting in this release, you can enable an application deployment to support implicit uninstall. If a device is in a collection, the application installs. Then when you remove the device from the collection, the application uninstalls.
For the full list, check this out, oh and don’t forget to update your .net versions, to preferably .net 4.8 before upgrading.
