What will the license requirements be for hotpatching for my Windows 11 clients?

Are Business premium limited someway, or do I need to use E3 / E5?

To take advantage of the public preview, your organization will need the following to be eligible for hotpatching:

  • A Microsoft subscription that includes Windows Enterprise E3 or E5 (e.g. Microsoft 365 A3/A5 or Microsoft 365 F3); or a Windows 365 Enterprise subscription
  • Targeted devices running Windows 11 Enterprise, version 24H2 (Build 26100.2033 or later)
  • Microsoft Intune

    Good day, Thank you for this!

    may I come with the feedback, that this feature would be so nice to have with Business premium. 95% of our customers are Business Premium users. 

    Many scandinavian countries are not that big, they can utilize E3 fully, due to cost. 

    Having this working for Windows 11 Business, and Business Premium would be a big wish!
