Microsoft Edge is the default browser experience for Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile.

We also recommend that you upgrade to IE11 if you're running any earlier versions of Internet Explorer. IE11 is supported on Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10. So any legacy apps that work with IE11 will continue to work even as you migrate to Windows 10.

Surface Hub is designed to be used in communal spaces, such as meeting rooms. Unlike Windows PCs, anyone can walk up and use a Surface Hub without requiring a user to sign in. To enable this communal functionality, Surface Hub does not support Windows sign-in the same way that Windows 10 Enterprise does (e.g., signing in a user to the OS and using those crednetials throughout the OS). Instead, there is always a local, auto signed-in, low-privilege user signed in to the Surface Hub. It doesn't support signing in any additional users, including admin users (e.g., when an admin signs in, they are not signed in to the OS).
Users can sign in to a Surface Hub, but they will not be signed in to the OS. For example, when a user signs in to Apps or My Meetings and Files, the users is signed in only to the apps or services, not to the OS. As a result, the signed-in user is able to retrieve their cloud files and personal meetings stored in the cloud, and these credentials are discarded when **End session** is activated.

> Surface Hub supports signing in to Microsoft Edge and other apps. However, these credentials are deleted when users press **End session**.

- Apps must be targeted for the [Universal device family](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/apps/dn894631) or Windows Team device family.
- By default, apps must be Store-signed to be installed. During testing and development, you can also choose to run developer-signed UWP apps by placing the device in developer mode.- When submitting an app to the Microsoft Store, developers need to set Device family availability and Organizational licensing options to make sure an app will be available to run on Surface Hub.
- You need admin credentials to install apps on your Surface Hub. Since the device is designed to be used in communal spaces like meeting rooms, people can't access the Microsoft Store to download and install apps.

## Surface Hub servicing model
Surface Hub uses the Windows 10 servicing model, referred to as Windows as a Service (WaaS). Traditionally, new features are added only in new versions of Windows that are released every few years. Each new version required lengthy and expensive processes to deploy in an organization. As a result, end users and organizations don't frequently enjoy the benefits of new innovation. The goal of Windows as a Service is to continually provide new capabilities while maintaining a high level of quality.
Surface Hub uses the Windows 10 servicing model, referred to as [Windows as a Service (WaaS)](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/deployment/update/waas-overview). Traditionally, new features were added only in new versions of Windows that were released every few years. Each new version required lengthy and expensive processes to deploy in an organization. As a result, end users and organizations don't frequently enjoy the benefits of new innovation. The goal of Windows as a Service is to continually provide new capabilities while maintaining a high level of quality.
Microsoft publishes two types of Surface Hub releases broadly on an ongoing basis:
- **Feature updates** - Updates that install the latest new features, experiences, and capabilities. Microsoft expects to publish an average of two to three new feature upgrades per year.
- **Feature updates** - Updates that install the latest new features, experiences, and capabilities. Microsoft expects to publish two tnew feature updates per year.
- **Quality updates** - Updates that focus on the installation of security fixes, drivers, and other servicing updates. Microsoft expects to publish one cumulative quality update per month.
In order to improve release quality and simplify deployments, all new releases that Microsoft publishes for Windows 10, including Surface Hub, will be cumulative. This means new feature updates and quality updates will contain the payloads of all previous releases (in an optimized form to reduce storage and networking requirements), and installing the release on a device will bring it completely up to date. Also, unlike earlier versions of Windows, you cannot install a subset of the contents of a Windows 10 quality update. For example, if a quality update contains fixes for three security vulnerabilities and one reliability issue, deploying the update will result in the installation of all four fixes.
The Surface Hub operating system is available on **Current Branch (CB)** and **Current Branch for Business (CBB)**. Like other editions of Windows 10, the servicing lifetime of CB or CBB is finite. You must install new feature updates on machines running these branches in order to continue receiving quality updates.

### Configure Surface Hub to use Current Branch or Current Branch for Business
By default, Surface Hubs are configured to receive updates from Current Branch (CB). CB receives feature updates as soon as they are released by Microsoft. Current Branch for Business (CBB), on the other hand, receives feature updates at least four months after they have been initially offered to CB devices, and includes all of the quality updates that have been released in the interim. For more information on the differences between CB and CBB, see [Servicing branches](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/manage/waas-overview#servicing-branches).
**To manually configure Surface Hub to use CB or CBB:**
1. Open **Settings** > **Update & Security** > **Windows Update**, and then select **Advanced Options**.
2. Select **Defer feature updates**.
To configure Surface Hub to use CB or CBB remotely using MDM, set an appropriate [Update/BranchReadinessLevel](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/dn904962.aspx#Update_BranchReadinessLevel) policy.
### Configure when Surface Hub receives updates
Once you've determined deployment rings for your Surface Hubs, configure update deferral policies for each ring:
- To defer feature updates, set an appropriate [Update/DeferFeatureUpdatesPeriodInDays](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/dn904962.aspx#Update_DeferFeatureUpdatesPeriodInDays) policy for each ring.
- To defer quality updates, set an appropriate [Update/DeferQualityUpdatesPeriodInDays](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/dn904962.aspx#Update_DeferQualityUpdatesPeriodInDays) policy for each ring.
- To defer feature updates, set an appropriate [Update/DeferFeatureUpdatesPeriodInDays](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-update#update-deferfeatureupdatesperiodindays) policy for each ring.

# Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit
Find out how you can use the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit to test the hardware of your Surface device.
The [Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=46703) is a small, portable diagnostic tool that runs through a suite of tests to diagnose the hardware of Surface devices. The Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit executable file is less than 3 MB, which allows it to be distributed through email. It does not require installation, so it can be run directly from a USB stick or over the network. The Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit walks you through several tests of individual components including the touchscreen, cameras, and sensors.
>[!NOTE]
>A Surface device must boot into Windows to run the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit. The Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit will run only on the following Surface devices:
>- Surface Studio
>- Surface Book
>- Surface Pro 4
>- Surface 3 LTE
>- Surface 3
>- Surface Pro 3
>- Surface Pro 2
>- Surface Pro
>[!NOTE]
>Security software and built-in security measures in many email applications and services will block executable files that are transferred through email. To email the Surface Diagnostic Toolkit, attach the archive file (.zip) as downloaded from the Surface Tools for IT page without extracting it first. You can also create a custom .zip archive that contains the .exe file. (For example, if you want to localize the text as described in the [Localization](#localization) section of this article.)
Running the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit is a hands-on activity. The test sequence includes several tests that require you to perform actions or observe the outcome of the test, and then click the applicable **Pass** or **Fail** button. Some tests require connectivity to external devices, like an external display. Other tests use the built in Windows troubleshooters. At the end of testing, a visual report of the test results is displayed and you are given the option to save a log file or copy the results to the clipboard.
To run a full set of tests with the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit, you should be prepared with the following items:
- An external display with the appropriate HDMI or DisplayPort connection
- A Bluetooth device that can be put into pairing mode
- A MicroSD or SD card that is compatible with your Surface device
- A Surface Pen
- Room to move the Surface device around
- External speakers or headphones with a 3.5mm stereo plug
- A power adapter for your Surface device
>[!NOTE]
>The Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit tests verify only the hardware of a Surface device and do not resolve issues with the operating system or software.
## Configure test options
Before you select the tests you want to run, you can click the Tools ![images\surface-diagnostic-kit-gear-icon.png](images\surface-diagnostic-kit-gear-icon.png) button in the upper right corner of the window (as shown in Figure 1) to access the Options section of the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit. In the Options section, you can configure the depth of testing and logs, as well as the save location for log files. You can also create and use additional language files for the dialog of each test.
![Tools button highlighted in upper right corner of window](images\surface-diagnostic-kit-fig1-options.png "Tools button highlighted in upper right corner of window")
*Figure 1. The Tools button highlighted in upper right corner of window*
>[!NOTE]
>Any options you want to select must be specified before you run the tests. You cannot change the test options after the testing sequence has started.
####Test depth
You can quickly select among three modes for testing and diagnostics by using the **Test Depth** page. The **Test Depth** page displays a slider with three possible positions, as shown in Figure 2. These positions determine which tests are run and what information is recorded without requiring you to select specific tests with the **Run Specific Tests** button. The three modes allow you to focus the tests of the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit on hardware, software, or both hardware and software.
![Screen that displays Test Depth slider to select depth of data collection](images/surface-diagnostic-kit-fig2-testdepth.png "Screen that displays Test Depth slider to select depth of data collection")
*Figure 2. The Test Depth slider to select the depth of data collection*
When you select a mode by using the Test Depth slider, a configuration file (.ini) with the same name as the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit executable (.exe) file is created in the same folder. For example, if the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit executable file is SurfaceDiagnosticToolkit.exe, the configuration file will be SurfaceDiagnosticToolkit.ini. When the executable file is run, the options will be automatically set by the configuration file. To run the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit in a specific mode on multiple devices, ensure that the .ini file remains in the same folder with the .exe file used on each device.
When you run the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit, you can still use the **Run Specific Tests** button to enable or disable specific tests. The tests selected on the **Please Select Tests to Run** page take priority over the tests enabled or disabled by the mode specified on the **Test Depth** page. When a mode is selected the tests that are applicable to that mode will be enabled by default and the tests that are not required for that mode will be disabled.
Each mode has a specific focus and records a different level of information in the log files, as follows:
* **Hardware and Software Focus.** This is the default mode for the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit. In this mode all tests that are applicable to the device are run. This mode logs the most information and takes the most time.
* **Software Experience Focus.** This mode collects information about the device and records it in the log file. No hardware tests are performed in this mode. The following tests are run in this mode:
* Windows Update Check Test
* Device Information Test
* System Assessment Test
* Crash Dump Collection Test
* Modern Standby Test
* **Hardware Validation Focus.** This mode tests the hardware of the device but does not collect system log files or device information. All diagnostic tests relevant to the device hardware are run in this mode. The exact tests that are run will vary from device to device depending on the hardware configuration. This mode logs the least information and requires the least amount of time.
####Save location
Use the **Browse** button on the **Save Location** page to select a default location for the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit log files to be saved. When the tests complete the user will still be prompted to save a log file and a log file will not be saved automatically. The user must still click the **Save to File** button to save the log files. As with the Test Depth mode, this save location is stored in the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit configuration (.ini) file and if the file does not exist, configuring this option will generate the file.
####Additional language
Refer to the [Localization](#localization) section of this article for information about how to customize the dialog displayed during each test. On the **Additional Language** page, you can generate a localization file that you can use to customize the dialog during each test. You can also specify a specific localization file to be used with the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit with the **Browse** button.
####Feedback
You can use the form on the **Feedback** page to inform the product team of any problems that you encounter with the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit or to provide any suggestions for how the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit could be improved.
## The tests
The Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit runs several individual tests on a Surface device. Not all tests are applicable to every device. For example, the Home button test is not applicable to Surface Pro 4 where there is no Home button. You can specify which tests to run, or you can choose to run all tests. For tests that require external devices (such as testing output to an external display) but you do not have the required external device at the time of the test, you are given the option to skip the test. If a test fails, you are prompted to continue or stop testing at that time.
When the testing completes, the **Test Results** page is displayed (as shown in Figure 3) and shows the status of each test: passed, failed, or inconclusive (skipped).

#### Windows Update
This test checks for any outstanding Windows updates and will prompt you to install those updates before you proceed to other tests. It is important to keep a Surface device up to date with the latest Windows updates, including drivers and firmware for the Surface device. The success of some of the tests that are performed later in the task sequence depend on these updated drivers and firmware. You will be prompted to restart the device if required by Windows Update. If you must restart the device, you will need to start the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit again.
#### Device information
This test reads the Device ID and serial number in addition to basic system information such as device model, operating system version, processor, memory, and storage. The Device ID is recorded in the name of the log file and can be used to identify a log file for a specific device. Several system log files are also collected, including update and rollback logs, and output from several Windows built-in tools, such as [DirectX Diagnostics](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/products/windows?os=windows-10) and [System Information](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc731397), power configuration, disk health, and event logs.

These files and logs are stored in a .zip file saved by the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit when all selected tests have completed alongside the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit log file.
#### Type Cover test
>[!NOTE]
>A Surface Type Cover is required for this test.
If a Surface Type Cover is not detected, the test prompts you to connect the Type Cover. When a Type Cover is detected the test prompts you to use the keyboard and touchpad. The cursor should move while you swipe the touchpad, and the keyboard Windows key should bring up the Start menu or Start screen to successfully pass this test. You can skip this test if a Type Cover is not used with the Surface device.
#### Integrated keyboard test
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only applicable to Surface Book and requires that the Surface Book be docked to the keyboard.
This test is essentially the same as the Type Cover test, except the integrated keyboard in the Surface Book base is tested rather than the Type Cover. During the first stage of this test a diagram of the keyboard is displayed. When you press a key, the corresponding key will be marked on the diagram. The test will proceed when every key in the diagram is marked. In the second stage of this test, you are prompted to make several gestures on the keypad. As you perform each gesture (for example, a three finger tap), the gesture will be marked on the screen. When you have performed all gestures, the test will automatically complete.
>[!NOTE]
>The F-keys on the diagram require that you press the Function (FN) key simultaneously to activate them. By default, these keys perform other actions. For the Home and End keys, you must press the same keys as F8 and F9, but without the Function (FN) key pressed.
#### Canvas mode battery test
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only applicable to Surface Book.
Depending on which mode Surface Book is in, different batteries are used to power the device. When Surface Book is in clipboard mode (detached form the keyboard) it uses an internal battery, and when it is connected in either laptop mode or canvas mode it uses different connections to the battery in the keyboard. In canvas mode, the screen is connected to the keyboard so that when the device is closed, the screen remains face-up and visible. Connect the Surface Book to the keyboard in this manner for the test to automatically proceed.
#### Clipboard mode battery test
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only applicable to Surface Book.
Disconnect the Surface Book from the keyboard to work in clipboard mode. In clipboard mode the Surface Book operates from an internal battery that is tested when the Surface Book is disconnected from the keyboard. Disconnecting the Surface Book from the keyboard will also disconnect the Surface Book from power and will automatically begin this test.
#### Laptop mode battery test
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only applicable to Surface Book.
Connect the Surface Book to the keyboard in the opposite fashion to canvas mode in laptop mode. In laptop mode the screen will face you when the device is open and the device can be used in the same way as any other laptop. Disconnect AC Power from the laptop base when prompted for this test to check the battery status.
#### Battery test
In this test the battery is discharged for a few seconds and tested for health and estimated runtime. You are prompted to disconnect the power adapter and then to reconnect the power adapter when the test is complete.
#### Discrete graphics (dGPU) test
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only applicable to Surface Book models with a discrete graphics processor.
This test will query the device information of current hardware to check for the presence of both the Intel integrated graphics processor in the Surface Book and the NVIDIA discrete graphics processor in the Surface Book keyboard. The keyboard must be attached for this test to function.
#### Discrete graphics (dGPU) fan test
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only applicable to Surface Book models with a discrete graphics processor.
The discrete graphics processor in the Surface Book includes a separate cooling fan. The fan is turned on automatically by the test for 5 seconds. Listen for the sound of the fan in the keyboard and report if the fan is working correctly when prompted.
#### Muscle wire test
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only applicable to Surface Book.
To disconnect the Surface Book from the keyboard, software must instruct the muscle wire latch mechanism to open. This is typically accomplished by pressing and holding the undock key on the keyboard. This test sends the same signal to the latch, which unlocks the Surface Book from the Surface Book keyboard. Remove the Surface Book from the keyboard when you are prompted to do so.
#### Dead pixel and display artifacts tests
>[!NOTE]
>Before you run this test, be sure to clean the screen of dust or smudges.
This test prompts you to view the display in search of malfunctioning pixels. The test displays full-screen, single-color images including black, white, red, green, and blue. Pixels that remain bright or dark when the screen displays an image of a different color indicate a failed test. You should also look for distortion or variance in the color of the screen.
#### Digitizer edges
The touchscreen of a Surface device should detect when a user swipes in from the left or right side of the screen. This test prompts you to swipe in from the edges of the screen to bring up the Action Center and Task View. Both Action Center and Task View should launch to pass this test.
#### Digitizer pinch
The pinch gesture (when you bring two fingers closer together or farther apart) is used to manipulate zoom and to position content through the touchscreen. This test displays an image in Windows Picture Viewer and prompts you to zoom in, move, and zoom out of the picture. The picture should zoom in, move, and zoom out as the gestures are performed.
#### Digitizer touch
The Surface touchscreen should detect input across the entire screen of the device equally. To perform this test a series of lines are displayed on the screen for you to trace with a finger in search of unresponsive areas. The lines traced across the screen should appear continuous for the length of the line as drawn with your finger.
#### Digitizer pen test
>[!NOTE]
>A Microsoft Surface Pen is required for this test.
This test displays the same lines as those that are displayed during the Digitizer Touch test, but your input is performed with a Surface Pen instead of your finger. The lines should remain unbroken for as long as the Pen is pressed to the screen. Trace all of the lines in the image to look for unresponsive areas across the entire screen of the Surface device.
#### Digitizer multi touch
The Surface touchscreen is capable of detecting 10 fingers simultaneously. Place all of your fingers on the screen simultaneously to perform this test. The screen will show the number of points detected, which should match the number of fingers you have on the screen.
#### Home button test
The Home button or Windows button on your Surface device is used to bring up the Start screen or Start menu. This test is successful if the Start screen or Start menu is displayed when the Windows button is pressed. This test is not displayed on Surface Pro 4 because no Windows button exists.
#### Volume rocker test
This test prompts you to use the volume rocker to turn the volume all the way up, all the way down, and then all the way up again. To pass this test, the volume slider should move up and down as the rocker is pressed.
#### Micro SD or SD slot test
>[!NOTE]
>This test requires a micro SD or SD card that is compatible with the slot in your Surface device.
Insert a micro SD or SD card when you are prompted. When the SD card is detected, the test prompts you to remove the SD card to ensure that the card is not left in the device. During this test a small file is written to the SD card and then verified. Detection and verification of the SD card automatically passes this test without additional input.
#### Microphone test
This test displays a meter that shows the microphone sound level and records audio for a short period of time. Say a few words or make noise and make note that the meter displays the sound level accordingly. A countdown timer is displayed to indicate how much time is remaining for you to record sound. When the countdown timer expires, the recorded audio is played back. Verify that the words or noises sound clear and accurate, and then mark the test as passed or failed depending on the results.
#### Video out test
>[!NOTE]
>This test requires an external display with the applicable connection for your Surface device.
Surface devices provide a Mini DisplayPort connection for connecting to an external display. Connect your display through the Mini DisplayPort on the device when prompted. The display should be detected automatically and an image should appear on the external display.
#### Bluetooth test
>[!NOTE]
>This test requires a Bluetooth device. The device must be set to pairing mode or made discoverable to perform this test.
After you receive a prompt to put the device in pairing mode, the test opens the **Add a device** window and begins to search for discoverable Bluetooth devices. Watch the **Add a device** window to verify that your Bluetooth device is detected. Select your Bluetooth device from the list and connect to the device to complete the test.
#### Camera test
Use this test to verify that the cameras on your Surface device are operating properly. Images will be displayed from both the front and rear cameras, and the infrared camera on a Surface Pro 4. Continuous autofocus can be enabled on the rear camera. Move the device closer and farther away from an object to verify the operation of continuous autofocus.
>[!NOTE]
>You can also use the **Snapshot to Logs** option to save a snapshot of the video output to the log files.
#### Speaker test
>[!NOTE]
>Headphones or external speakers are required to test the headphone jack in this test.
This test plays audio over left and right channels respectively, both for the internal speakers and for speakers or headphones connected through the headphone jack. Plug in your headphones or speakers to the 3.5mm stereo jack when prompted. The test will automatically detect that a sound playback device has been connected. Mark each channel as a pass or fail as you hear the audio play through the speakers or headphones.
#### Network test
>[!NOTE]
>Connect the Surface device to a Wi-Fi network before you run this test. Connections that are made during the test are removed when the test is completed.
This test uses the Windows Network Diagnostics built in troubleshooter to diagnose potential issues with network connectivity, including proxy configuration, DNS problems, and IP address conflicts. An event log is saved by this test in Windows logs and is visible in the Windows Event Viewer. The Event ID is 6100.
#### Power test
Settings such as display brightness, the elapsed time until the screen sleeps, and the elapsed time until device sleeps, are checked against default values with the Power built-in troubleshooter. The troubleshooter will automatically correct settings that may prevent the device from conserving power or entering sleep mode.
#### Mobile broadband test
This test prompts you to enable mobile broadband and attempts to browse to http://www.bing.com. This test is only applicable to Surface devices that come equipped with mobile broadband, such as Surface 3 LTE.
#### Accelerometer test
The accelerometer detects lateral, longitudinal, and vertical movements of the Surface device. This test prompts you to pick up and move the Surface device forward and backward, to the left and to the right, and up and down, to test the sensor for directional movement. The test automatically passes when movement is detected.
#### Gyrometer test
The gyrometer detects pitch, roll, and yaw movements. This test prompts you to pick up and rotate the Surface device to test the sensors for angular movement. The test automatically passes when movement is detected.
#### Compass test
The compass detects which direction the Surface device is facing relative to north, south, east, and west. Turn the Surface device to face in different directions to test the sensor. The test automatically passes when a change in direction is detected.
#### Ambient light test
The ambient light sensor is used to automatically adjust screen brightness relative to the ambient lighting in the environment. Turn the device toward or away from a light source to cause the screen to dim or brighten in response increased or decreased light. The test automatically passes when the screen brightness automatically changes.
>[!NOTE]
>You can also block the ambient light from the sensor by holding your hand slightly in front of the light sensor, which is located directly next to the camera. Use the provided meter to determine if you are blocking light from the sensor.
#### Device orientation test
>[!NOTE]
>Before you run this test, disable rotation lock from the Action Center if enabled.
The device orientation sensor determines what the angle of the Surface device is, relative to the ground. Rotate the display 90 degrees or 180 degrees to cause the screen orientation to switch between portrait and landscape mode. If you have a Surface Type Cover or the Surface Book keyboard connected, you will be prompted to disconnect the Surface from the keyboard to allow screen rotation. The test automatically passes when the screen orientation switches.
#### Brightness test
This test cycles the screen through brightness levels from 0 percent to 100 percent, and then a message is displayed to confirm if the brightness level changed accordingly. You are then prompted to test for brightness reaction. To test the reaction of brightness when running on battery, disconnect the power adapter. The screen should automatically dim when power is disconnected.
#### Surface Dock test
The Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit uses this test only if a Surface Dock is connected to the device. If a Surface Dock is detected, this test verifies that the Surface Dock driver firmware is updated. For more detailed analysis of Surface Dock firmware status and how to manually initiate the firmware update process, see the [Microsoft Surface Dock Updater](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/surface/surface-dock-updater) article.
#### System assessment
>[!NOTE]
>The Surface device must be connected to AC power before you can run this test.
The Windows System Assessment Tool (WinSAT) runs a series of benchmarks against the processor, memory, video adapter, and storage devices. The results include the processing speed of various algorithms, read and write performance of memory and storage, and performance in several Direct3D graphical tests.
#### Performance Monitor test
Performance and diagnostic trace logs are recorded from Performance Monitor for 30 seconds and collected in the .zip file output of the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit by this test. You can analyze these trace logs with the [Windows Performance Analyzer](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/test/wpt/windows-performance-analyzer) to identify causes of application crashes, performance issues, or other undesirable behavior in Windows.
#### Crash dump collection
If your Surface device has encountered an error that caused the device to fail or produce a blue screen error, this stage of the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit records the information from the automatically recorded crash dump files in the diagnostic log. You can use these crash dump files to identify a faulty driver, hardware component, or application through analysis. Use the [Windows Debugging Tool](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/ff539316) to analyze these files. If you are not familiar with the analysis of crash dump files, you can describe your issue and post a link to your crash dump files (uploaded to OneDrive or another file sharing service) in the [Windows TechNet Forums](https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/home?category=w8itpro).
#### Connected standby text
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only available on Surface devices running Windows 8 or Windows 8.1.
If connected standby is enabled on the Surface device, this test passes automatically. If connected standby is not enabled, a failure is recorded for this test. Find out more about Connected Standby and Modern Standby at [Modern Standby](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/mt282515) on MSDN.
#### Modern standby test
>[!NOTE]
>This test is only available on Surface devices running Windows 10.
This test records log files of the power configuration for the Surface device using the **powercfg.exe /a** command. The test completes automatically and a failure is only recorded if the command does not run.
## Command line

#### forceplatformsupport
Use this argument to force tests to run when the make and model of the device is not properly detected by Windows. Surface Diagnostic Toolkit is intended to run only on Surface devices.
Example:
```
Surface_Diagnostic_Toolkit_1.0.60.0.exe forceplatformsupport
```
#### include
Use this argument to include tests when you run Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit from the command line. Tests specified by the **Include** command will be run even if the test is not supported on the model of Surface device. In the following example, the Surface Book specific tests for the latch mechanism and discrete graphics will be run, even if the command is run on a Surface Pro 4 or other Surface model.
Example:
```
Surface_Diagnostic_Toolkit_1.0.60.0.exe “include=DualGraphicsTest,FanTest,MuscleWireTest”
```
#### logpath
Use this argument to specify the path for the log file.
Example 1:
```
Surface_Diagnostic_Toolkit_1.0.60.0.exe logpath=C:\Folder
```
Example 2:
```
Surface_Diagnostic_Toolkit_1.0.60.0.exe “logpath=C:\Folder with spaces”
```
## Localization
By default, the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit is available in English only. If you want to localize the text of the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit prompts into another language, you can do so by creating a custom localization file. To create a new localization file (.locale), follow these steps:
1. Click the Tools ![images\surface-diagnostic-kit-gear-icon.png](images\surface-diagnostic-kit-gear-icon.png) button.
2. Click the **Additional Language** page.
3. Click the **Generate** button and the new .locale file is created.
The locale file that is created when you use these steps will have the same name as your executable file, even if it has been changed from the default. For example, if the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit executable file is SurfaceDiagnosticToolkit.exe, the localization file would be SurfaceDiagnosticToolkit.locale. The locale file will be created in the same folder as the executable file. If a localization file with this name already exists, you will be prompted to overwrite the existing file. The file that is created when you click the **Generate** button is always generated in the default language, English.
To customize the localization file, open the file in a text or XML editor such as Notepad. To edit the dialog for each test, replace the text for each phrase tag. (For example, `<phrase key="testdialog">text</phrase>`.) To use the file automatically when you start the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit, simply save the file with the same name it had when it was created. To save the file for use with other instances of Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit, copy the file to another location or save the file with another name.
If a localization file with the same name and in the same folder as the executable file is detected when Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit started, the alternate text specified in that localization file replaces the default dialog and prompts. If a custom localization file is not present or the file name is not the same as the executable file, the tool will default to English text. At any point you can also explicitly specify a localization file to be used by the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit. To specify a localization file, follow these steps:
1. Click the Tools ![images\surface-diagnostic-kit-gear-icon.png](images\surface-diagnostic-kit-gear-icon.png) button.
2. Click the **Additional Language** page.
3. Click **Browse**.
4. Browse to and select your custom localization file.
A custom localization file selected through this process does not need a specific name. After you select the custom localization file, the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit will import the contents and write them to a .locale file with the same name as the .exe file, just like if you click the **Generate** button to create a new .locale file.
>[!NOTE]
>If you import a localization file by clicking the **Browse** button, an existing localization file will be overwritten without prompting if that file has the same name as the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit executable file.

Keep these best practices in mind when deploying any edition of Windows 10 in schools or districts:
* A Microsoft account is only intended for consumer services. Enterprises and educational institutions should use enterprise versions where possible, such as Skype for Business, OneDrive for Business, and so on. For schools, consider using mobile device management (MDM) or Group Policy to block students from adding a Microsoft account as a secondary account.
* If schools allow the use of personal accounts by their students to access personal services, schools should be aware that these accounts belong to individuals, not the school.
* IT administrators, school officials, and teachers should also consider ratings when picking apps from the Windows Store.

## Permissive mode
Starting with Windows 10, version 1709 (Fall Creators Update), assessments can now run in permissive mode. This mode enables students who need access to other apps, like accessibility tools, to use the apps.
When permissive mode is triggered in lockdown mode, Take a Test transitions from lockdown mode to running windows mode on the user's desktop. The student can then run allowed apps during the test.
When running tests in this mode, keep the following in mind:
- Permissive mode is not supported in kiosk mode (dedicated test account).
- Permissive mode can be triggered from the web app running within Take a Test. Alternatively, you can create a link or shortcut without "#enforcelockdown" and it will launch in permissive mode.

# Reset devices with Windows Automatic Redeployment
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10, version 1709
IT admins or technical teachers can use Windows Automatic Redeployment to quickly remove personal files, apps, and settings, and reset Windows 10 devices from the lock screen any time and apply original settings and management enrollment (Azure Active Directory and device management) so the devices are ready to use. With Windows Automatic Redeployment, devices are returned to a fully configured or known IT-approved state.
To enable Windows Automatic Redeployment in Windows 10, version 1709 (Fall Creators Update), you must:
1. [Enable the policy for the feature](#enable-windows-automatic-redeployment)
2. [Trigger a reset for each device](#trigger-windows-automatic-redeployment)
## Enable Windows Automatic Redeployment
**DisableAutomaticReDeploymentCredentials** is a policy that enables or disables the visibility of the credentials for Windows Automatic Redeployment. It is a policy node in the [Policy CSP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-credentialproviders), **CredentialProviders/DisableAutomaticReDeploymentCredentials**. By default, this policy is set to 1 (True). This ensures that Windows Automatic Redeployment isn't triggered by accident.
You can set the policy using one of these methods:
- MDM provider
- Windows Automatic Redeployment in Intune for Education is coming soon. In a future update of Intune for Education, new tenants will automatically have the Windows Automatic Redeployment setting enabled by default on the **All devices** group as part of initial tenant configuration. You will also be able to manage this setting to target different groups in the admin console.
- 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/CredentialProviders/DisableAutomaticReDeploymentCredentials
- Data type: Boolean
- Value: 1
- Windows Configuration Designer
You can [use Windows Configuration Designer](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/configuration/provisioning-packages/provisioning-create-package) to set the **Runtime settings > Policies > CredentialProviders > DisableAutomaticReDeploymentCredentials** setting and create a provisioning package.
- Set up School PCs app
Windows Automatic Redeployment in the Set up School PCs app is coming soon. We'll update the documentation once the feature is available on the app. In the meantime, you'll want to make sure you are running Windows 10, version 1709 on the student PCs if you want to use Windows Automatic Redeployment through the Set up School PCs app. You can check the version several ways:
- Reach out to your device manufacturer.
- If you manage your PCs using Intune or Intune for Education, you can check the OS version by checking the **OS version** info for the device. If you are using another MDM provider, check the documentation for the MDM provider to confirm the OS version.
- Log into the PCs, go to the **Settings > System > About** page, look in the **Windows specifications** section and confirm **Version** is set to 1709.
## Trigger Windows Automatic Redeployment
Windows Automatic Redeployment is a two-step process: trigger it and then authenticate. Once you've done these two steps, you can let the process execute and once it's done, the device is again ready for use.
**To trigger Windows Automatic Redeployment**
1. From the Windows device lock screen, enter the keystroke: **CTRL + ![Windows key](images/windows_glyph.png) + R**.
![Enter CTRL+Windows key+R on the Windows lockscreen](images/windows-automatic-redeployment-lockscreen.png)
This will open up a custom login screen for Windows Automatic Redeployment. The screen serves two purposes:
1. Confirm/verify that the end user has the right to trigger Windows Automatic Redeployment
2. Notify the user in case a provisioning package, created using Windows Configuration Designer or Set up School PCs, will be used as part of the process.
![Custom login screen for Windows Automatic Redeployment](images/windows-automatic-redeployment-customlogin.png)
2. Sign in with the admin account credentials. If you created a provisioning package, plug in the USB drive and trigger Windows Automatic Redeployment.
Once Windows Automatic Redeployment is triggered, the reset process starts.
After reset, the device:
- Sets the region, language, and keyboard.
- Connects to Wi-Fi.
- If you provided a provisioning package when Windows Automatic Redeployment is triggered, the system will apply this new provisioning package. Otherwise, the system will re-apply the original provisioning package on the device.
- Is returned to a known good managed state, connected to Azure AD and MDM.
![Notification that provisioning is complete](images/windows-automatic-redeployment-provisioningcomplete.png)
Once provisioning is complete, the device is again ready for use.

# Acquire apps in Microsoft Store for Business and Education
As an admin, you can acquire apps from the Microsoft Store for Business and Education for your employees. Some apps are free, and some have a price. For info on app types that are supported, see [Apps in the Microsoft Store for Business](apps-in-windows-store-for-business.md).

## App licensing model
The Microsoft Store supports two options to license apps: online and offline. **Online** licensing is the default licensing model. Online licensed apps require users and devices to connect to the Microsoft Store services to acquire an app and its license. **Offline** licensing is a new licensing option for Windows 10. With offline licenses, organizations can cache apps and their licenses to deploy within their network. ISVs or devs can opt-in their apps for offline licensing when they submit them to the developer center. Admins control whether or not offline apps are available in Microsoft Store with an offline app visibility setting. For more information, see [offline license visibility](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/manage/update-windows-store-for-business-account-settings#offline-licensing).

Device Guard signing is a Device Guard feature that is available in Microsoft Store for Business and Education. It gives admins a single place to sign catalog files and code integrity policies. After admins have created catalog files for unsigned apps and signed the catalog files, they can add the signers to a code integrity policy. You can merge the code integrity policy with your existing policy to include your custom signing certificate. This allows you to trust the catalog files.
Device Guard is a feature set that consists of both hardware and software system integrity hardening features. These features use new virtualization-based security options and the trust-nothing mobile device operating system model. A key feature in this model is called configurable code integrity, which allows your organization to choose exactly which software or trusted software publishers are allowed to run code on your client machines. Also, Device Guard offers organizations a way to sign existing line-of-business (LOB) applications so that they can trust their own code, without the requirement that the application be repackaged. Also, this same method of signing allows organizations to trust individual third-party applications. For more information, see [Device Guard deployment guide](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/mt463091.aspx).

While not required, you can use a management tool to distribute and manage apps. Using a management tool allows you to distribute content, scope app availability, and control when app updates are installed. This might make sense for larger organizations that already use a management tool. A couple of things to note about management tools:
- Need to integrate with Windows 10 management framework and Azure AD.
- Need to sync with the Store for Business inventory to distribute apps.

**App licensing model**
The Business store supports two options to license apps: online and offline. **Online** licensing is the default licensing model and is similar to the Windows Store. Online licensed apps require users and devices to connect to the Store for Business service to acquire an app and its license. **Offline** licensing is a new licensing option for Windows 10. With offline licenses, organizations can cache apps and their licenses to deploy within their network. ISVs or devs can opt-in their apps for offline licensing when they submit them to the developer center.

Troubleshooting topics for Microsoft Store for Business.
## Can't find apps in private store
The private store for your organization is a page in the Windows Store app that contains apps that are private to your organization. After your organization acquires an app, your Store for Business admin can add it to your organization's private store. Your private store usually has a name that is close to the name of your organization or company. If you can't see your private store, there are a couple of things to check:
- **No apps in the private store** - The private store page is only available in the Windows Store app if there are apps added to your private store. You won't see your private store page with no apps listed on it. If your Store for Business admin has added an app to the private store, and the private store page is still not available, they can check the private store status for the app on the **Inventory** page. If the status is **Add in progress**, wait and check back.

## Offline licensing
Offline licensing is a new licensing option for Windows 10. With offline licenses, organizations can cache apps and their licenses to deploy within their network. ISVs or devs can opt-in their apps for offline licensing when they submit them to the developer center. Only apps that are opted in to offline licensing will show that they are available for offline licensing in Store for Business. This model means organizations can deploy apps when users or devices do not have connectivity to the Store.

Your company or school can make line-of-business (LOB) applications available through Microsoft Store for Business or Microsoft Store for Education. These apps are custom to your school or organization they might be internal apps, or apps specific to your school, business, or industry.
Developers within your organization, or ISVs that you invite, can become LOB publishers and submit apps to Microsoft Store for your company or school. Once an LOB publisher submits an app for your company, the app is only available to your company. LOB publishers submit apps through the Windows Dev Center using the same process as all apps that are in the Store, and then can be managed or deployed using the same process as any other app that has been acquired through the Store.

One advantage of making apps available through Microsoft Store is that the app has been signed by the Store, and uses the standard Store policies. For organizations that cant submit their application through the Windows Dev Center (for example, those needing additional capabilities or due to compliance purposes), [Sideloading](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=623433) is also supported in Windows 10.
