New features and enhancements are introduced through the monthly cumulative update to provide continuous innovation for Windows 11. To give organizations time to plan and prepare, some of these new features are temporarily turned off by default. Features that are turned off by default are listed in the KB article for the monthly cumulative update. Typically, a feature is selected to be off by default because it either impacts the user experience or IT administrators significantly.

Files that are locked by an application or the operating system are handled differently when using a hard-link migration store.
|
||||
|

Files that are locked by the operating system can't remain in place and must be copied into the hard-link migration store. As a result, selecting many operating-system files for migration significantly reduces performance during a hard-link migration. As a best practice, we recommend that you don't migrate any files out of the `\Windows directory`, which minimizes performance-related issues.

Files that are locked by an application are treated the same in hard-link migrations as in other scenarios when the volume shadow-copy service isn't being utilized. The volume shadow-copy service can't be used with hard-link migrations. However, by modifying the new **<HardLinkStoreControl>** section in the `Config.xml` file, it's possible to enable the migration of files locked by an application.

The following XML sample specifies that files locked by an application under the `\Users` directory can remain in place during the migration. It also specifies that locked files that aren't located in the `\Users` directory should result in the **File in Use** error. It's important to exercise caution when specifying the paths using the `<createhardlink>`** tag in order to minimize scenarios that make the hard-link migration store more difficult to delete.
