Not yet ready for Windows 11 From the 21H2 number, the Windows HoloGraphic is based on Windows 10. It is still unknown whether Microsoft will move the mixed reality platform to Windows 11. What’s new Moving Platform Mode beta – when configured, it enables the use of HoloLens 2 on large marine vessels experiencing low-dynamic motion. This is a new innovative feature that expands the usability of HoloLens 2 in large environments with low dynamic movement. PFX file support for Certificate Manager – this gives customers more control over the certificates they can manually add to their devices. They can add PFX certs via Settings UI.  View advanced diagnostic report in Settings on HoloLens – there is now a simplified troubleshooting flow such that the user wearing the device is able to view the MDM logs on the device. Long gone are the days where you had to transfer logs to a nearby PC. Offline Diagnostics notifications – there is a new audiovisual feedback feature when gathering offline diagnostics. This notifies the person gathering logs that their button combination pressed has done something. You also now need not wait for a temporary file to clean itself up to know it’s completed. There will be a toast notification to alert you. Low storage log collection improvements – Improvements have been made to log collection scenarios in times of low storage situations. The device will clean up in low storage situations to create space. You can also use MDM or run CSPs to check if your devices are running low on space. Improved update restart detection and notifications – there are new updated policies to give you better control when restarting your device.  Smart Retry for app updates – IT admins have been enabled to schedule retries to update apps. If an app fails to download or the device shut down before the download can finish, the smart retry policy allows you to try again as per your preferences. Use only private store apps for Microsoft Store – Organizations can now limit the store to display only company apps.
