New Windows 10 update

What is new?

Timeline
The service operates on the basis of the "History of tabs" in browsers and stores information about previously opened sites and files. It also displays data about tabs from the Edge browser and files from Microsoft 365, on both Android and iOS devices.

Focus Assist
This function will help keep concentration, disabling notifications from social networks, email clients, and other services at the right time. Upon completion of the work, the user will receive all emails and notifications. To receive important calls or messages, the user is encouraged to use the list of exceptions.

Microsoft Edge
In the browser, you can turn off sound on separate tabs and save data to fill out payment forms. People who have difficulty reading will benefit from the Grammar Tools button. It will break the words on the page into syllables.

Voice control
The Dictation function will make it possible to create notes or a document using only the voice. Control devices for the "smart home" are through the assistant Cortana.

Delivery Optimization
The service allows you to download the update to one device and then transfer it to the rest using a local network. This will reduce the amount of traffic consumed by 90%. Delivery Optimization statistics will be available in Windows Analytics. In particular, it will show how many devices are updated and how much bandwidth is saved.

Compatibility
The Readiness Toolkit for Office helps to check the compatibility of VBA macros and various Office add-ins. Application Health Analyzer identifies dependencies in user-developed applications and ensures that they are compatible with Windows 10 updates.

ConfigMgr
In the recently released version of ConfigMgr 1802, it was possible to perform step-by-step deployment cycles. This is the next step in automating the maintenance of workplaces based on Windows 10 and Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise. If the update is deployed to the target group computers without errors, it is automatically launched for the next group of employees.

Intune
This tool allows you to deploy and manage software on the service terminals. With the help of the new Microsoft Kiosk browser, created on the basis of Microsoft Edge, one or several terminals can safely and without crashing view web pages in full screen mode.

  Now the function includes a page with the status of the installation. It makes sure that the necessary agreements, settings, and applications appear on the device during the initial installation before the end user is at the screen and starts interacting with the device.
