Added in Windows 10, version 1703. Allows IT Admins the ability to disable the "Microsoft Account Sign-In Assistant" (wlidsvc) NT service.
Note
If the MSA service is disabled, Windows Update will no longer offer feature updates to devices running Windows 10 1709 or higher. See Feature updates are not being offered while other updates are.
