+# Surface device compatibility with Windows 10 Long-Term Servicing Branch (LTSB)
+
+Surface devices are designed to provide best-in-class experiences in productivity and general-purpose scenarios. Regular updates enable Surface devices to bring to life new innovations and to evolve with the new capabilities delivered by Windows 10 Feature Updates. Feature Updates are available only in Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Enterprise editions that receive continuous updates through the Current Branch (CB) or Current Branch for Business (CBB) servicing options.
+
+In contrast to the CB and CBB servicing options, you cannot select the Long-Term Servicing Branch (LTSB) option in Windows 10 settings. To use the LTSB servicing option, you must install a separate edition of Windows 10 Enterprise, known as *Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB*. In addition to providing an extended servicing model, the Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB edition also provides an environment with several Windows components removed. The core Surface experiences that are impacted by LTSB include:
+
+* Windows Feature Updates, including enhancements such as:
+
+ * Improvements to Direct Ink and palm rejection provided in Windows 10, version 1607 (also referred to as the Anniversary Update)
+ * Improved support for high DPI applications provided in Windows 10, version 1703 (also referred to as the Creators Update)
+
+* Pressure sensitivity settings provided by the Surface app
+
+* The Windows Ink Workspace
+
+* Key touch-optimized in-box applications including Microsoft Edge, OneNote, Calendar, and Camera
+
+The use of the Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB environment on Surface devices results in sub-optimal end-user experiences and you should avoid using it in environments where users want and expect a premium, up-to-date user experience.
+
+The LTSB servicing option is designed for device types and scenarios where the key attribute is for features or functionality to never change. Examples include systems that power manufacturing or medical equipment, or embedded systems in kiosks, such as ATMs or airport ticketing systems.
+
+>[!NOTE]
+>For general information about Windows servicing branches, including LTSB, see [Overview of Windows as a service](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/update/waas-overview#long-term-servicing-branch).
+
+>[!NOTE]
+>As a general guideline, devices that fulfill the following criteria are considered general-purpose devices and should be paired with Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Enterprise using the CB or CBB servicing option:
+
+* Devices that run productivity software such as Microsoft Office
+
+* Devices that use Windows Store applications
+
+* Devices that are used for general Internet browsing (for example, research or access to social media)
+
+Before you choose to use Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB edition on Surface devices, consider the following limitations:
+
+* Drivers and firmware for Surface devices are tested against the most recent version of Windows 10 CB and the last two versions of CBB. Drivers and firmware are not explicitly tested against releases of Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB.
+
+* If you encounter problems, Microsoft Support will provide troubleshooting assistance. However, due to the servicing nature of the Windows LTSB, issue resolution may require that devices be upgraded to a more recent version of Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB, or to Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise with the CB or CBB servicing option.
+
+* Surface device replacements (for example, devices replaced under warranty) may contain subtle variations in hardware components that require updated device drivers and firmware. Compatibility with these updates may require the installation of a more recent version of Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB or Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise with the CB or CBB servicing option.
+
+>[!NOTE]
+>Organizations that standardize on a specific version of Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB may be unable to adopt new generations of Surface hardware without also updating to a later version of Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB or Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise. For more information, see the **How will Windows 10 LTSBs be supported?** topic in the **Supporting the latest processor and chipsets on Windows** section of [Lifecycle Policy FAQ—Windows products](https://support.microsoft.com/help/18581/lifecycle-policy-faq-windows-products#b4).
+
+Surface devices running Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB edition will not receive new features. In many cases these features are requested by customers to improve the usability and capabilities of Surface hardware. For example, new improvements for High DPI applications in Windows 10, version 1703. Customers that use Surface devices in the LTSB configuration will not see the improvements until they either update to a new Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB release or upgrade to a version of Windows 10 with support for the CB and CBB servicing options.
+
+Devices can be changed from Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB to a more recent version of Windows 10 Enterprise, with support for the CB and CBB servicing options, without the loss of user data by performing an upgrade installation. You can also perform an upgrade installation on multiple devices by leveraging the Upgrade Task Sequence Templates available in the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) and System Center Configuration Manager. For more information, see [Upgrade Surface devices to Windows 10 with Microsoft Deployment Toolkit](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/surface/upgrade-surface-devices-to-windows-10-with-mdt).

+# Windows 10 configuration recommendations for education customers
+**Applies to:**
+
+- Windows 10
+
+
+Privacy is important to us, we want to provide you with ways to customize the OS diagnostic data, consumer experiences, Cortana, search, as well as some of the preinstalled apps, for usage with [education editions of Windows 10](windows-editions-for-education-customers.md) in education environments. To learn more about Microsoft’s commitment to privacy, see [Windows 10 and privacy](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=809305).
+
+In Windows 10, version 1703 (Creators Update), it is straightforward to configure Windows to be education ready.
+
+| Area | How to configure | What this does | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| **Diagnostic Data** | **SetEduPolicies** | Sets Diagnostic Data to [Basic](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/configure/configure-windows-telemetry-in-your-organization) | On Windows 10 Education or Windows 10 Pro Education, this is already set |
+| **Microsoft consumer experiences** | **SetEduPolicies** | Disables suggested content from Windows such as app recommendations | On Windows 10 Education or Windows 10 Pro Education, this is already set |
+| **Cortana** | **AllowCortana** | Disables Cortana | * Cortana is enabled by default on all editions in Windows 10, version 1703 * If using Windows 10 Pro Education or Windows 10 Education, upgrading from Windows 10, version 1607 to Windows 10, version 1703 will enable Cortana. You can use the **AllowCortana** policy to turn it off. |
+| **Safe search** | **SetEduPolicies** | Locks Bing safe search to Strict in Microsoft Edge | On Windows 10 Education or Windows 10 Pro Education, this is already set |
+| **Bing search advertising** | Ad free search with Bing | Disables ads when searching the internet with Bing in Microsoft Edge | Depending on your specific requirements, there are different ways to configure this as detailed in [Ad-free search with Bing](#ad-free-search-with-bing) |
+| **Apps** | **SetEduPolicies** | Preinstalled apps like Microsoft Edge, Movies & TV, Groove, and Skype become education ready | * Any app can detect Windows is running in an education ready configuration through [IsEducationEnvironment](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.system.profile.educationsettings) * On Windows 10 Education or Windows 10 Pro Education, this is already set |
+
+
+## Recommended configuration
+It is easy to be education ready when using Microsoft products. We recommend the following configuration:
+
+1. Use an Office 365 Education tenant.
+
+ With Office 365, you also have Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). To learn more about Office 365 Education features and pricing, see [Office 365 Education plans and pricing](https://products.office.com/en-us/academic/compare-office-365-education-plans).
+
+2. Activate Intune for Education in your tenant.
+
+ You can [sign up to learn more about Intune for Education](https://info.microsoft.com/US-WNDWS-CNTNT-FY17-01Jan-17-IntuneforEducationlandingpageandnurture292531_01Registration-ForminBody.html).
+
+3. On PCs running Windows 10, version 1703 (Windows 10 Pro Education or Windows 10 Education):
+ 1. Provision the PC using one of these methods:
+ * [Provision PCs with the Set up School PCs app](use-set-up-school-pcs-app.md) - This will automatically set both **SetEduPolicies** to True and **AllowCortana** to False.
+ * [Provision PCs with a custom package created with Windows Configuration Designer](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/itpro/windows/configure/provisioning-create-package) - Make sure to set both **SetEduPolicies** to True and **AllowCortana** to False.
+ 2. Join the PC to Azure Active Directory.
+ * Use Set up School PCs or Windows Configuration Designer to bulk enroll to Azure AD.
+ * Manually Azure AD join the PC during the Windows device setup experience.
+ 3. Enroll the PCs in MDM.
+ * If you have activated Intune for Education in your Azure AD tenant, enrollment will happen automatically when the PC is joined to Azure AD. Intune for Education will automatically set **SetEduPolicies** to True and **AllowCortana** to False.
+
+4. Distribute the PCs to students.
+
+ Students sign in with their Azure AD/Office 365 identity, which enables single sign-on to Bing in Microsoft Edge, enabling an ad-free search experience with Bing in Microsoft Edge.
+
+5. Ongoing management through Intune for Education.
+
+ You can set many policies through Intune for Education, including **SetEduPolicies** and **AllowCortana**, for ongoing management of the PCs.
+
+## Configuring Windows
+You can configure Windows through provisioning or management tools including industry standard MDM.
+- Provisioning - A one-time setup process.
+- Management - A one-time and/or ongoing management of a PC by setting policies.
+
+You can set all the education compliance areas through both provisioning and management tools. Additionally, these Microsoft education tools will ensure PCs that you set up are education ready:
+- [Set up School PCs](use-set-up-school-pcs-app.md)
+- Intune for Education (coming soon)
+
+## AllowCortana
+**AllowCortana** is a policy that enables or disables Cortana. It is a policy node in the Policy configuration service provider, [AllowCortana](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#experience-allowcortana).
+
+Use one of these methods to set this policy.
+
+### MDM
+- Intune for Education automatically sets this policy in the **All devices** group policy configuration.
+- If you're using an MDM provider other than Intune for Education, check your MDM provider documentation on how to set this policy.
+ - If your MDM provider doesn't explicitly support this policy, you can manually set this policy if your MDM provider allows specific OMA-URIs to be manually set.
+
+ For example, in Intune, create a new configuration policy and add an OMA-URI.
+ - OMA-URI: ./Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Experience/AllowCortana
+ - Data type: Integer
+ - Value: 0
+
+ 
+
+### Group Policy
+Set **Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Search > AllowCortana** to **Disabled**.
+
+
+
+### Provisioning tools
+- [Set up School PCs](use-set-up-school-pcs-app.md) always sets this policy in provisioning packages it creates.
+- [Windows Configuration Designer](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/itpro/windows/configure/provisioning-create-package)
+ - Under **Runtime settings**, click the **Policies** settings group, set **Experience > Cortana** to **No**.
+
+ 
+
+## SetEduPolicies
+**SetEduPolicies** is a policy that applies a set of configuration behaviors to Windows. It is a policy node in the [SharedPC configuration service provider](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/sharedpc-csp).
+
+Use one of these methods to set this policy.
+
+### MDM
+- Intune for Education automatically sets this policy in the **All devices** group policy configuration.
+- If you're using an MDM provider other than Intune for Education, check your MDM provider documentation on how to set this policy.
+ - If your MDM provider doesn't explicitly support this policy, you can manually set this policy if your MDM provider allows specific OMA-URIs to be manually set.
+
+ For example, in Intune, create a new configuration policy and add an OMA-URI.
+ - OMA-URI: ./Vendor/MSFT/SharedPC/SetEduPolicies
+ - Data type: Boolean
+ - Value: true
+
+ 
+
+### Group Policy
+**SetEduPolicies** is not natively supported in Group Policy. Instead, use the [MDM Bridge WMI Provider](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dn905224(v=vs.85).aspx) to set the policy in [MDM SharedPC](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/mt779129(v=vs.85).aspx).
+
+### Provisioning tools
+- [Set up School PCs](use-set-up-school-pcs-app.md) always sets this policy in provisioning packages it creates.
+- [Windows Configuration Designer](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/itpro/windows/configure/provisioning-create-package)
+ - Under **Runtime settings**, click the **SharedPC** settings group, set **PolicyCustomization > SetEduPolicies** to **True**.
+
+ 
+
+## Ad-free search with Bing
+Provide an ad-free experience that is a safer, more private search option for K–12 education institutions in the United States. Additional information is available at http://www.bing.com/classroom/about-us.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> If you enable the guest account in shared PC mode, students using the guest account will not have an ad-free experience searching with Bing in Microsoft Edge unless the PC is connected to your school network and your school network has been configured as described in [IP registration for entire school network using Microsoft Edge](#ip-registration-for-entire-school-network-using-microsoft-edge).
+
+### Configurations
+
+#### IP registration for entire school network using Microsoft Edge
+Ad-free searching with Bing in Microsoft Edge can be configured at the network level. To configure this, email bicteam@microsoft.com with the subject "New Windows 10, version 1703 (Creators Update) Registration: [School District Name]" and the include the following information in the body of the email.
+
+**District information**
+- **District or School Name:**
+- **Outbound IP Addresses (IP Range + CIDR):**
+- **Address:**
+- **City:**
+- **State Abbreviation:**
+- **Zip Code:**
+
+**Registrant information**
+- **First Name:**
+- **Last Name:**
+- **Job Title:**
+- **Email Address:**
+- **Opt-In for Email Announcements?:**
+- **Phone Number:**
+
+This will suppress ads when searching with Bing on Microsoft Edge when the PC is connected to the school network.
+
+#### Azure AD and Office 365 Education tenant
+To suppress ads when searching with Bing on Microsoft Edge on any network, follow these steps:
+
+1. Ensure your Office 365 tenant is registered as an education tenant. For more information, see [Verify your Office 365 domain to prove education status](https://support.office.com/article/Verify-your-Office-365-domain-to-prove-ownership-nonprofit-or-education-status-or-to-activate-Yammer-87d1844e-aa47-4dc0-a61b-1b773fd4e590).
+2. Domain join the Windows 10 PCs to your Azure AD tenant (this is the same as your Office 365 tenant).
+3. Configure **SetEduPolicies** according to one of the methods described in the previous sections in this topic.
+4. Have students sign in with their Azure AD identity, which is the same as your Office 365 identity, to use the PC.
+
+#### Office 365 sign-in to Bing
+To suppress ads only when the student signs into Bing with their Office 365 account in Microsoft Edge, follow these steps:
+
+1. Configure **SetEduPolicies** according to one of the methods described in the previous sections in this topic.
+2. Have students sign into Bing with their Office 365 account.
+
+### More information
