Status:

Change type:

Admin impact

Details:

We’re introducing a significant change for enterprise Windows devices that have diagnostic data turned on.?We will stop using policies to configure this option and introduce an organization-wide configuration based on Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to determine Microsoft’s role in the data processing. This change will start with devices enrolled in the Dev Channel of the Windows Insider program no earlier than July 2022 and for supported versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10 no earlier than the last quarter of the calendar year 2022.


For details on these changes and how to enable the Windows diagnostic data processor configuration option, see Significant changes coming to the Windows diagnostic data processor configuration documentation topic.


Currently, to enroll devices in the Window diagnostic data processor configuration option, IT admins can use policies, such as the “Allow commercial data pipeline” policy at the individual device level. To enable efficiencies and help us implement our plan to store and process EU Data in the EU, we’ll stop using policies, such as the “Allow commercial data pipeline” policy, to configure the processor option. Instead, we’ll be introducing an organization-wide configuration based on Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to determine Microsoft’s role in the data processing.

We’re making this change to help ensure the diagnostic data for all devices in an organization is processed in a consistent way, and in the same geographic region.

When will this happen:


This change is releasing to Windows devices enrolled in the Dev Channel of the Windows Insider program the week of July 24, 2022. Any Windows build on or after 25169 will contain the changes. For other Windows devices (not in the Dev Channel), additional details on supported versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10 will be announced at a later date. These changes will roll out no earlier than the last quarter of the calendar year 2022.

2023-05-11MC How AffectOnce the rollout is initiated, devices in the Dev Channel that are joined to an Azure AD tenant with a billing address in the EU or EFTA will be automatically enrolled into the processor configuration option.


During this initial rollout, the following conditions apply to devices in the Dev Channel that are joined to an Azure AD tenant with a billing address outside of the EU or EFTA:
Devices can't be enabled for the Windows diagnostic data processor configuration at this time.
The processor configuration will be disabled in any devices that were previously enabled.
Microsoft will act as the controller for Windows diagnostic data in accordance with the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
The Data Protection Addendum terms won't apply.

As part of this change, the following policies will no longer be supported to configure the processor option:
Allow commercial data pipeline
Allow Desktop Analytics Processing
Allow Update Compliance Processing
Allow WUfB Cloud Processing
Configure the Commercial ID


It's recommended Insiders on these devices pause flighting if these changes aren't acceptable. For Windows devices in the Dev Channel that aren't joined to an Azure AD tenant, Microsoft will act as the controller for Windows diagnostic data in accordance with the Microsoft Privacy Statement and the Data Protection Addendum terms won't apply.

2023-05-11MC prepareEnsure that you meet the prerequisites for Windows diagnostic data processor configuration, join your devices to Azure AD, and keep your devices secure and up to date with quality updates. If you're outside of the EU or EFTA, the organization must sign up for any of the following enterprise services:


Update Compliance
Windows Update for Business deployment service
Microsoft Managed Desktop
Endpoint analytics (in Microsoft Endpoint Manager)
(Additional licensing requirements may apply to use these services.)


If you don’t sign up for any of these enterprise services, Microsoft will act as the controller for the diagnostic data.


Note: In all cases, enrollment in the Windows diagnostic data processor configuration requires a device to be joined to an Azure AD tenant. If a device is not properly enrolled, Microsoft will be the controller of diagnostic data processed in connection with Windows in accordance with the Microsoft Privacy Statement (aka.ms/privacy), and the Data Protection Addendum (aka.ms/DPA) terms will not apply.

2022-07-28MC MessagesWe’re introducing a significant change for enterprise Windows devices that have diagnostic data turned on. We will stop using policies to configure this option and introduce an organization-wide configuration based on Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to determine Microsoft’s role in the data processing. This change will start with devices enrolled in the Dev Channel of the Windows Insider program no earlier than July 2022 and for supported versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10 no earlier than the last quarter of the calendar year 2022.


For details on these changes and how to enable the Windows diagnostic data processor configuration option, see Configure Windows diagnostic data in your organization documentation topic.


Currently, to enroll devices in the Window diagnostic data processor configuration option, IT admins can use policies, such as the “Allow commercial data pipeline” policy at the individual device level. To enable efficiencies and help us implement our plan to store and process EU Data in the EU, we’ll stop using policies, such as the “Allow commercial data pipeline” policy, to configure the processor option. Instead, we’ll be introducing an organization-wide configuration based on Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to determine Microsoft’s role in the data processing.

We’re making this change to help ensure the diagnostic data for all devices in an organization is processed in a consistent way, and in the same geographic region.

When will this happen:


This change will roll out initially to Windows devices enrolled in the Dev Channel of the Windows Insider program no earlier than July 2022. For other Windows devices (not in de Dev Channel), additional details on supported versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10 will be announced later. These changes will roll out no earlier than the last quarter of the calendar year 2022.

This change is releasing to Windows devices enrolled in the Dev Channel of the Windows Insider program the week of July 24, 2022. Any Windows build on or after 25169 will contain the changes. For other Windows devices (not in the Dev Channel), additional details on supported versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10 will be announced at a later date. These changes will roll out no earlier than the last quarter of the calendar year 2022.
