Engage content from private communities and events will be used as grounding source for M365 Copilot. When a user queries in M365 Copilot, they will only be able to see content they are privileged to access.
Microsoft Information Protection (MIP) content sensitivity label support in Planner will enable encryption, restrict unauthorised actions such as copying, printing, or exporting plan contents, and add visual markings like watermarks for clear sensitivity awareness. By enforcing content-level protections, Planner will help organisations prevent data leaks, maintain compliance, and enable secure collaboration without affecting productivity.
We are announcing the ability to enhance customer interactions with auto-linked CRM data in Dynamics 365 Sales.
The Visio Data Visualizer add-in for Excel will be retired: removed from the store on December 8, 2025, and its service shut down on March 2, 2026. Users must save existing diagrams as Visio files before then. Focus will shift to Visio Plan 2 and the Visio desktop app.
The option to install the latest Windows 10 feature update on devices ineligible for Windows 11 will be deprecated starting February 17, 2026. Existing policies will continue until then. Users should prepare for this change and can seek assistance via the Microsoft Intune admin center.
The “Send to Kindle” feature in Microsoft Word will retire starting February 9, 2026, and be fully removed by March 9, 2026. It will no longer be available on Word desktop or web, but users can still upload documents via Amazon’s Send to Kindle website. No admin action is needed.
The SharePoint News web part “See All” experience will be updated with a modern mosaic layout and AI-powered features requiring a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Rollout starts November 2025, with no admin action needed. Core interactions remain unchanged, enhancing news engagement and visual design.
Microsoft Viva Glint admins will soon be able to delete custom user attributes directly within the platform, improving data accuracy and reducing support dependency. This feature, rolling out worldwide in mid-December 2025, requires admins to review and update attribute management processes accordingly.
Outlook for Android will support in-app PDF attachment previews starting late November 2025, enabling users to view PDFs directly within the app by default. No admin action is needed, and users can still open PDFs in other apps if desired. This applies to all commercial and education tenants.
I've been working with Microsoft Technologies over the last ten years, mainly focused on creating collaboration and productivity solutions that drive the adoption of Microsoft Modern Workplace.
