Scenarios to deploy enterprise operating systems with Configuration Manager

  • Raksts

Applies to: Configuration Manager (current branch)

The following OS deployment scenarios are available in Configuration Manager:

Upgrade Windows to the latest version

This scenario upgrades the OS on computers that run an earlier version of Windows. The upgrade process keeps the applications, settings, and user data on the computer. There are no external dependencies, such as the Windows ADK. This process can be faster and more resilient than traditional OS deployments.

This scenario applies to all supported versions of Windows client and Windows Server.

For more information, see Upgrade Windows to the latest version.

Windows Autopilot for existing devices

Windows Autopilot for existing devices is available with Windows 10, version 1809 or later. This feature allows you to reimage and provision a device with an earlier version of Windows for Windows Autopilot user-driven mode using a single Configuration Manager task sequence.

This scenario applies to Windows 10 version 1809 and later

For more information, see Windows Autopilot for existing devices.

Refresh an existing computer with a new version

This scenario applies to all supported versions of Windows client and Windows Server.

Install a new version of Windows on a new computer
