With User Experience Virtualization (UE-V), you can capture user-customized Windows and application settings and store them on a centrally managed network file share. When users log on, their personalized settings are applied to their work session, regardless of which device or virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) sessions they log on to.
With the release of Windows 10, version 1607, UE-V is included with the Windows 10 for Enterprise edition. If you are new to Windows 10 and EU-V or upgrading from a previous version of UE-V, you’ll need to download, activate, and install server- and client-side components to start synchronizing user-customized settings across devices.

### New MDM capabilities
Windows 10, version 1703 adds several new configuration service providers (CSPs) that provide new capabilities for managing Windows 10 devices using MDM. Some of the new CSPs are:
- The [DynamicManagement CSP](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/dynamicmanagement-csp) allows you to manage devices differently depending on location, network, or time. For example, managed devices can have cameras disabled when at a work location, the cellular service can be disabled when outside the country to avoid roaming charges, or the wireless network can be disabled when the device is not within the corporate building or campus. Once configured, these settings will be enforced even if the device can’t reach the management server when the location or network changes. The Dynamic Management CSP enables configuration of policies that change how the device is managed in addition to setting the conditions on which the change occurs.
- The [CleanPC CSP](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/cleanpc-csp) allows removal of user-installed and pre-installed applications, with the option to persist user data.
- The [BitLocker CSP](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/bitlocker-csp) is used to manage encryption of PCs and devices. For example, you can require storage card encryption on mobile devices, or require encryption for fixed drives and removable drives.
- The [NetworkProxy CSP](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/networkproxy-csp) is used to configure a proxy server for ethernet and Wi-Fi connections.

### Application Virtualization for Windows (App-V)
Previous versions of the Microsoft Application Virtualization Sequencer (App-V Sequencer) have required you to manually create your sequencing environment. Windows 10, version 1703 introduces two new PowerShell cmdlets, New-AppVSequencerVM and Connect-AppvSequencerVM, which automatically create your sequencing environment for you, including provisioning your virtual machine. Addtionally, the App-V Sequencer has been updated to let you sequence or update multiple apps at the same time, while automatically capturing and storing your customizations as an App-V project template (.appvt) file, and letting you use PowerShell or Group Policy settings to automatically cleanup your unpublished packages after a device restart.

### Upgrade Readiness
Upgrade Readiness helps you ensure that applications and drivers are ready for a Windows 10 upgrade. The solution provides up-to-date application and driver inventory, information about known issues, troubleshooting guidance, and per-device readiness and tracking details. The Upgrade Readiness tool moved from public preview to general availability on March 2, 2017.
The development of Upgrade Readiness has been heavily influenced by input from the community the development of new features is ongoing. To begin using Upgrade Readiness, add it to an existing Operation Management Suite (OMS) workspace or sign up for a new OMS workspace with the Upgrade Readiness solution enabled.
For more information about Upgrade Readiness, see the following topics:

Details are provided about the deployment progress of existing updates and the status of future updates. Information is also provided about devices that might need attention to resolve issues.
For more information about Update Compliance, see [Monitor Windows Updates with Update Compliance](../manage/update-compliance-monitor.md).
