Day in brief

Windows Security Center MAM guidance adds an explicit connector enablement step

The most consequential update revises the Intune Mobile Threat Defense setup flow for Windows MAM: admins are now told to enable Connect Windows devices for MAM and verify the connector reaches Enabled. The remaining updates are Windows Autopilot documentation maintenance, replacing outdated Win32, Enterprise App Catalog, and Win32 management links; they do not describe enrollment or policy-behavior changes.

  • The Intune Step 3 procedure now adds an explicit step to open the Windows Security Center connector, enable Connect Windows devices for MAM, and save. The documented status is now Available after creation and changes to Enabled when the toggle is turned on, replacing the previous guidance that it remained Unavailable until a policy arrived or a MAM user enrolled.

  • The Windows Autopilot Entra join user-driven tutorial now links to /create-win32-package, /add-enterprise-catalog-app, and /win32 instead of the older Win32 packaging, Enterprise App Catalog, and Win32 overview paths. This is a documentation-navigation refresh; the diff does not describe a change to supported apps or assignments.
