Microsoft 365 Copilot’s “Prepare for a meeting” feature is coming to classic Outlook for Windows for licensed users, providing meeting context from emails, documents, and tasks via the Calendar. Rollout starts January 2026, with no admin changes required; users need an active Copilot license.

Loop meeting notes now automatically inherit your meeting’s sensitivity label. When admins enable label inheritance in the sensitivity label policy, any labeled meeting applies the same label to its Loop meeting notes, ensuring protections like encryption, access controls, and data handling rules carry forward consistently. This also ensures that Copilot and agent responses based on Loop meeting notes accurately reflect the meeting’s sensitivity, keeping confidential content protected end to end.
Admins now have a one-stop portal for inventory, health monitoring, management, and analytics for both Windows and Android devices with the Pro Management portal. Management of all Android Teams rooms, panels, and phone devices are transitioning to this portal from the Teams admin center, enabling easy, consistent, and secure management of Teams devices across all operating systems and manufacturers.
