improve telemetry feature in windows 10 to be able to detect problems better
Currently the Telemetry, Error reporting and diagnostics services inside Windows 10 (Insider or not) are not good enough to catch the problems and bugs. specially those bugs that don't cause system crashes or bugs that cause some thing in Windows not to work. for these type of bugs and problems, Microsoft relies on people to report them but most of the time either people don't report them or they fail to specify how to produce that problem/bug. Windows 10 needs such a robust Telemetry and diagnostics services that would do its job regardless of people reporting a problem or not. this Telemetry and diagnostics services must be even more thorough in Insider builds, they'd have to be so deep into Insider builds so that they produce very clear and thorough reports for Microsoft to identify the problems and things that don't work.

By: Zineb Takafi - Product Manager & Lavanya Lakshman - Principal Product Manager | Microsoft Intune Microsoft Intune is a widely used cloud-based endpoint management solution that simplifies the management and security of devices, apps, and data across your organization. Intune is poised to set a new standard for IT productivity and protection with generative AI capabilities powered by Microsoft Security Copilot, an AI-driven security solution designed to empower security and IT professionals. Copilot integrates seamlessly into Intune, transforming critical workflows around policy management, troubleshooting, and security threat resolution. With key integrations in Intune Suite for Endpoint Privilege Management and Device Query, Copilot enhances endpoint security by offering AI-driven insights and potential app elevation risk. These capabilities are designed to reduce manual intervention and accelerate response times. In this blog, we’ll dive into our current capabilities in preview. This is the first blog of our new monthly Copilot in Intune blog series. Each post will spotlight different Copilot capabilities within Intune through demos, practical tips, and real-world scenarios. By following along, you’ll discover our latest innovations with AI in Intune and how to harness the power of Copilot to stay ahead of emerging threats and streamline your management processes. Let’s get started on this journey together and unlock the full potential of Security Copilot in Intune today! Simplify device policy management Security Copilot in Intune helps IT admins quickly review and manage device policies. By selecting the "Summarize with Copilot" button, admins get a clear summary of policies and settings. Copilot’s "Describe the impact" feature helps understand how policies affect users and security. Admins can also investigate specific settings, check for conflicts across policies, and ensure everything aligns with organizational needs—all without manual research. Copilot streamlines policy management, saving time and enhancing security. Effortlessly troubleshoot device issues Copilot in Intune helps IT admins quickly troubleshoot device issues. By navigating to Devices and selecting the faulty device, admins can select “Explore with Copilot” and use the “Summarize this device” prompt to view key details like hardware info, group memberships, compliance state, and reasons for non-compliance. Admins can then compare the faulty device with a healthy one by having Copilot highlight differences in configuration profiles, compliance policies, app configuration policies, discovered apps, managed apps, and hardware. This powerful integration streamlines issue identification, making troubleshooting faster and more efficient. AI-powered Copilot integrations with Intune Suite With Advanced analytics and Endpoint Privilege Management, part of the Intune Suite available as an add-on, customers can take advantage of Copilot integrations to further streamline endpoint management. These AI-powered integrations streamline app elevation requests and complex KQL query creation in device query to get insights on your devices. Identify app risks before approving app privileges Security Copilot in Intune enhances Endpoint Privilege Management by helping IT admins assess the risk of app elevation requests. When users request to elevate unfamiliar apps, admins typically have to research the app’s reputation and potential risks manually. Copilot simplifies this by automatically analyzing the app’s security status. When a user requests elevation for an app, admins can select “Analyze with Copilot” in the Intune admin center. Copilot sends the app’s hash to Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence, providing critical insights. Copilot flags the app for suspicious indicators tied to a known malware campaign. Use natural language to get real-time device data The integration of Security Copilot with single device query in Intune offers IT admins an easier, more efficient way to monitor and manage devices. With this capability, admins can quickly translate natural language requests into Kusto Query Language (KQL) queries and get real time device data, eliminating the need for in-depth KQL knowledge. For instance, if an admin wants to identify the top 10 processes consuming the most memory on a device, Copilot can automatically convert this request into a precise KQL query. This integration streamlines the process of gathering real-time insights, enabling admins to troubleshoot, optimize, and secure devices more effectively and with greater ease. Use natural language to analyze and query multiple devices With Security Copilot in Intune, IT admins can easily create Kusto Query Language (KQL) queries for multi-device queries, gaining comprehensive insights into their entire device fleet. By navigating to Devices and selecting “Device query” in the Intune admin center, admins can quickly filter devices based on specific criteria. For example, an admin could request a list of devices with at least 8 GB of memory, over 50 GB of storage, and one encrypted volume. Security Copilot translates this natural language request into an accurate KQL query, eliminating the need for advanced KQL knowledge and streamlining the process of managing and securing devices across the organization. What’s next Our AI journey has only just begun, and with each step, we learn and evolve, driven by our commitment to simplifying IT workflows and reducing complexity for customers. We invite you to explore the robust integrations available within Intune where AI assistance transforms everyday tasks like policy management, troubleshooting, device queries, and elevation request evaluation into a more efficient, streamlined process with Copilot. Take advantage of these features today to optimize your security posture and stay ahead of emerging challenges. To get started or learn more about our enhancements visit Copilot in Intune.

Microsoft Account Troubleshooter: not updated since Oct. 2013
Hi! I downloaded today (2020-07-14) the tool ( https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/13976.how-to-troubleshoot-microsoft-account-issues.aspx ) and opened it with 7-zip. The files there are from Oct. 2013. It means that the tool might not know about changes to account authentication. Therefore, it may report wrong conclusions/detections. I may be wrong but it seems to me that the tool needs some updating.
