Hello Insiders!
Build 16226 is chock full of goodness with some very cool improvements for IT PROs!
Windows 10 and SMB1: As part of a multi-year security plan, we are removing the SMB1 networking protocol from Windows by default. This build has this change for clean installations of Windows only. We made this change to reduce the attack surface of the OS.
More details:
For more information on why SMB1 is being removed, see: https://aka.ms/stopusingsmb1
For more information on software and devices that require SMB1, see https://aka.ms/stillneedssmb1
Hyper-V Improvements:
Share your VMs with ease with the new VM Sharing feature! In today's build you'll find a new icon in Virtual Machine Connection that will compress your VM into a ".vmcz" file. Double click this file on your destination machine to start importing the VM - easy as that!
Check out what's new to experience and socialize about in the links below:
And in the words of our fearless leader, Dona Sarkar, "Keep Hustlin'. No downtime for Hustle-As-A-Service!"

Is there a tool that can be built to help the consumers/smb customers to identify if they will be impacted by this change? Already folks have tried to disable smbv1 and found too many of their home items fail to work -- i.e. Sonos speakers, NAS units, etc. I found that there's no one powershell command to determine what SMBvism is being used.
