Windows device settings to upgrade editions or enable S mode in Intune

Note

[!INCLUDE not-all-settings-are-documented]

Microsoft Intune includes many settings to help manage and protect your devices. This article describes some of the settings to upgrade Windows client editions, or switch out of S mode on Windows devices. These settings are created in an upgrade configuration profile in Intune that are assigned or deployed to devices.

As part of your mobile device management (MDM) solution, use these settings to control the Windows client edition and Window 10 S mode options for your Windows devices.

This feature applies to:

  • Windows

For more information on this feature, see Upgrade Windows editions or enable S mode.

For information on other options to upgrade Windows editions, see Windows edition upgrade.
