The Windows management AMA has concluded. Thanks for joining us today for Tech Community Live: Endpoint Manager edition. Please take this short survey and let us know how you felt about today's AMA sessions and Tech Community Live event. See you next time!
- SeMeDeIron ContributorIs there a way to ensure enrollment of Microsoft Whiteboard App on devices not managed by intune? On our Intune devices we assigned the app from the Store for Business and assigned it with "Required" option to enforce everybody has this app installed and don't have to click on "ink workspace" to install Whiteboard first time used. But how to do this for our still sadly needed not intune managed devices?

That concludes the live stream. We'll continue answering questions here in the Comments until the end of the hour. What do you think of this event? Please take this super short survey and let us know!
- BlueSakuraCopper ContributorIf a computer gets upgraded and later finds out to have an incompatibility that puts them on a hard stop, will Intune/Config Manager automatically downgrade the users who had an incompatible hardware/driver or will it keep them on the current version?

MEM will not automatically downgrade devices, we will let that remain an admin decision. Usually we recommend fixing the issues and moving forward... but sometimes you would need to downgrade. It depends on the situation so we won't automatically do it.

- BenOgleCopper ContributorIt's all fine and dandy to say not to use registry keys, but when there are so many Microsoft provided solutions that involved messing with registry keys, I feel that's not realistic to just say "Don't use registry keys"...
- jdburlingCopper ContributorTotally agree, on occasion we have had to use registry keys to fix issues with other Microsoft applications (Office 365, for example). I'd love to not have to use reg keys, but frankly, when Microsoft itself relies on them, it's hard to not leverage that.
- Steven-HCopper ContributorOr when a security remediation requires setting a registry key to make a security patch work. You'll see this a lot in MDE and other security patch notes. It would be great if this could be rapidly done via MEM.
- SeMeDeIron ContributorRob said something from commercial/business features in development and a keynote earlier this month? Do you maybee have a link to this?
