This optional scenario helps you to protect your organizations data on a device, based on an inspection by Cortana.
Cortana automatically finds patterns in your email, suggesting reminders based things that you said you would do so you dont forget about them. For example, Cortana recognizes that if you include the text, _Ill get this to you by the end of the week_ in an email, you're making a commitment to provide something by a specific date. Cortana can now suggest that you be reminded about this event, letting you decide whether to keep it or to cancel it.
## Use Cortana and WIP to protect your organizations data
>[!NOTE]
>The Suggested reminders feature is currently only available in English (en-us).
1. Create and deploy an WIP policy to your organization. For info about how to do this, see [Protect your enterprise data using Windows Information Protection (WIP)](../keep-secure/protect-enterprise-data-using-wip.md).
**To use Cortana to create Suggested reminders for you**
2. Create a new email from a non-protected or personal mailbox, including the text _Ill send you that presentation tomorrow_.
1. Make sure that you've connected Cortana to Office 365. For the steps to connect, see [Set up and test Cortana with Office 365 in your organization](cortana-at-work-o365.md).
3. Wait up to 2 hours to make sure everything has updated, click the **Cortana** icon in the taskbar, and then click in the **Search** bar.
2. Click on the **Cortana** search box in the taskbar, click the **Notebook** icon, and then click **Permissions**.
Cortana automatically pulls your commitment to sending the presentation out of your email, showing it to you.
3. Make sure the **Contacts, email, calendar, and communication history** option is turned on.
4. Create a new email from a protected mailbox, including the same text as above, _Ill send you that presentation tomorrow_.
![Permissions options for Cortana at work](images/cortana-communication-history-permissions.png)
5. Wait until everything has updated again, click the **Cortana** icon in the taskbar, and then click in the **Search** bar.
4. Click the **Notebook** icon again, click the **Suggested reminders** option, click to turn on the **All reminder suggestions cards** option, click the **Notify me when something I mentioned doing is coming up** box, and then click **Save**.
![Suggested reminders options for Cortana at work](images/cortana-suggested-reminder-settings.png)
5. Create and send an email to yourself (so you can see the Suggested reminder), including the text, _Ill finish this project by end of day today_.
6. After you get the email, click on the Cortana **Home** icon, and scroll to todays events.
If the reminder has a specific date or time associated with it, like end of day, Cortana notifies you at the appropriate time and puts the reminder into the Action Center. Also from the Home screen, you can view the email where you made the promise, set aside time on your calendar, officially set the reminder, or mark the reminder as completed.

Because it was in an WIP-protected email, the presentation info isnt pulled out and it isnt shown to you.

## Drivers and compatibility
### Where can I find drivers for my devices for Windows 10 Enterprise?
For many devices, drivers will be automatically installed in Windows 10 and there will be no need for additional action.
- For some devices, Windows 10 may be unable to install drivers that are required for operation. If your device drivers are not automatically installed, visit the manufacturers support website for your device to download and manually install the drivers. If Windows 10 drivers are not available, the most up-to-date drivers for Windows 8.1 will often work in Windows 10.
- For some devices, the manufacturer may provide more up-to-date drivers or drivers that enable additional functionality than the drivers installed by Windows 10. Always follow the recommendations of the device manufacturer for optimal performance and stability.
- Some computer manufacturers provide packs of drivers for easy implementation in management and deployment solutions like the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) or Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager. These driver packs contain all of the drivers needed for each device and can greatly simplify the process of deploying Windows to a new make or model of computer. Driver packs for some common manufacturers include:
- [HP driver pack](http://www8.hp.com/us/en/ads/clientmanagement/drivers-pack.html)
- [Dell driver packs for enterprise client OS deployment](http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/enterprise-client/w/wiki/2065.dell-command-deploy-driver-packs-for-enterprise-client-os-deployment)
- [Lenovo Configuration Manager and MDT package index](https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht074984)
### Where can I find out if an application or device is compatible with Windows 10?
Many existing Win32 and Win64 applications already run reliably on Windows 10 without any changes. You can also expect strong compatibility and support for Web apps and devices. The [Ready for Windows](https://www.readyforwindows.com/) website lists software solutions that are supported and in use for Windows 10. You can find additional guidance to help with application compatibility at [Windows 10 application compatibility](https://technet.microsoft.com/windows/mt703793) on the Windows IT Center.
### Is there an easy way to assess if my organizations devices are ready to upgrade to Windows 10?

### Can I upgrade computers from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 without deploying a new image?
Computers running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 can be upgraded directly to Windows 10 through the in-place upgrade process without a need to reimage the device using MDT and/or Configuration Manager. For more information, see [Upgrade to Windows 10 with System Center Configuration Manager](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/deploy/upgrade-to-windows-10-with-system-center-configuraton-manager) or [Upgrade to Windows 10 with the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/deploy/upgrade-to-windows-10-with-the-microsoft-deployment-toolkit).
### Are there any deployment tools available to support Windows 10?
Updated versions of Microsoft deployment tools, including Configuration Manager, MDT, and the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) have been released adding support for Windows 10. For most organizations currently using MDT or Configuration Manager to deploy Windows, deployment of Windows 10 will change very little.
For more information on deployment methods for Windows 10, see [Windows 10 deployment tools](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/mt297512.aspx) and [Windows 10 deployment scenarios](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/mt282208.aspx).
### Can I upgrade from Windows 7 Enterprise or Windows 8.1 Enterprise to Windows 10 Enterprise for free?
If you have Windows 7 Enterprise or Windows 8.1 Enterprise and current Software Assurance, you are entitled to the upgrade to Windows 10 Enterprise through the rights of Software Assurance. You can find your product keys and installation media at the [Volume Licensing Service Center](https://www.microsoft.com/Licensing/servicecenter/default.aspx).
For devices that are licensed under a volume license agreement for Windows that does not include Software Assurance, new licenses will be required to upgrade these devices to Windows 10.
## Managing updates
### What is Windows as a service?
The Windows 10 operating system introduces a new way to build, deploy, and service Windows: Windows as a service. Microsoft has reimagined each part of the process, to simplify the lives of IT pros and maintain a consistent Windows 10 experience for its customers. These improvements focus on maximizing customer involvement in Windows development, simplifying the deployment and servicing of Windows client computers, and leveling out the resources needed to deploy and maintain Windows over time. For more information, see [Overview of Windows as a service](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/manage/waas-overview).
### How is servicing different with Windows as a service?
Traditional Windows servicing has included several release types: major revisions (e.g., the Windows 8.1, Windows 8, and Windows 7 operating systems), service packs, and monthly updates. With Windows 10, there are two release types: feature updates that add new functionality two to three times per year, and quality updates that provide security and reliability fixes at least once a month.
### What are the servicing branches?
To align with the new method of delivering feature updates and quality updates in Windows 10, Microsoft introduced the concept of servicing branches to allow customers to designate how aggressively their individual devices are updated. For example, an organization may have test devices that the IT department can update with new features as soon as possible, and then specialized devices that require a longer feature update cycle to ensure continuity. With that in mind, Microsoft offers three servicing branches for Windows 10: Current Branch (CB), Current Branch for Business (CBB), and Long-Term Servicing Branch (LTSB). For details about the versions in each servicing branch, see [Windows 10 release information](https://technet.microsoft.com/windows/release-info.aspx). For more information on each branch, see [servicing branches](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/itpro/windows/manage/waas-overview#servicing-branches).
### What tools can I use to manage Windows as a service updates?
There are many tools are available. You can choose from these:
- Windows Update
- Windows Update for Business
- Windows Server Update Services
- System Center Configuration Manager
For more information on pros and cons for these tools, see [Servicing Tools](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/manage/waas-overview#servicing-branches).

### How will people in my organization adjust to using Windows 10 Enterprise after upgrading from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1?
Windows 10 combines the best aspects of the user experience from Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 to make using Windows simple and straightforward. Users of Windows 7 will find the Start menu in the same location as they always have. In the same place, users of Windows 8.1 will find the live tiles from their Start screen, accessible by the Start button in the same way as they were accessed in Windows 8.1. To help you make the transition a seamless one, download the [Windows 10 for Business Onboarding Kit](https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/windowsitpro/2016/06/28/windows-10-for-business-onboarding-kit/) and see our [end user readiness](https://technet.microsoft.com/windows/dn621092) resources.
### How does Windows 10 help people work with applications and data across a variety of devices?
The desktop experience in Windows 10 has been improved to provide a better experience for people that use a traditional mouse and keyboard. Key changes include:
- Start menu is a launching point for access to apps.
- Universal apps now open in windows instead of full screen.
- [Multitasking is improved with adjustable Snap](http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2015/06/04/arrange-your-windows-in-a-snap/), which allows you to have more than two windows side-by-side on the same screen and to customize how those windows are arranged.
