Windows 10 Ent - Inplace Upgrade Config
I have 2 config questions for inplace upgrades 1. How can I go about setting up the Start menu just for layout of pinned apps? Keeping in mind that I want this to be a one time setting and still all...

1. You can import a start menu layout XML file into the default user profile. See the TechNet docs on Import-StartLayout and Export-StartLayout. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/customize-and-export-start-layout for more detail.
2. You should be able to import a set of app defaults using DISM. There have been a few issues where these defaults haven't all "stuck" through an upgrade, but most of these should be fixed.

Setting the app defaults through group policy would be a nice feature. Any way to add this to the roadmap for future builds? Thank you.
