Modern Management has been a journey that we embarked on since Windows 10 was introduced into our environment, but the release of new CSPs to replace GPOs has stagnated (ADMX-backed policies are helpful but shouldn't be considered the final solution) and there have even been a handful that were replaced with new ones that require Azure AD. With Windows 11, will there be a renewed commitment to make new CSPs available on a more regular basis and will they allow for usage without Azure AD?

Hi pfennigd, there is no plan to fully replace all ADMXs with CSPs. Why don't you consider them as a "final solution"?
Also, can you please cite some examples of policies that require AAD? Also, what do you mean by AAD? Do you mean an AAD joined Windows device?
- We aren’t necessarily looking to see all ADMXs replaced with CSPs but we’ve been interested in whether the native CSPs will continue to be expanded. It was the CSP associated with WUfB that we had heard was going to require an Azure subscription.
- Jason_SandysCSPs are the preferred solution going forward for Windows configuration so yes, we are going to continue adding CSPs where and when they are required. As for the WUfB CSP, WUfB itself doesn't require Azure so the source of that information is most likely misinformed.
