In the past, the Deadline was based on the update&#8217;s release date for quality updates and the reboot pending date for feature updates.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>&#8220;Specify deadlines for automatic updates and restarts&#8221;<\/strong> policy setting has been divided into two separate settings to align with the existing configuration service provider (CSP) policies. The options in the Group Policy settings are the same for both feature and quality updates. Also, the settings have a <strong>&#8220;Don\u2019t auto-restart until end of grace period&#8221;<\/strong> option. The new Group Policy settings include &#8220;Specify deadlines for automatic updates and restarts for quality updates&#8221; and &#8220;Specify deadlines for automatic updates and restarts for feature updates.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Finally, to minimize the impact of the <strong>Deadline<\/strong> calculation change, the defaults values for feature updates were changed to 2 (previously 7) for the <strong>&#8220;Update\/ConfigureDeadlineForFeatureUpdates&#8221;<\/strong> setting and 7 (previously 2) for the <strong>&#8220;Update\/ConfigureDeadlineGracePeriodForFeatureUpdate&#8221;<\/strong> setting.<\/p>\n<h3>Input<\/h3>\n<p>The ability to use the Clipboard history on password fields is now rolling out to everyone in the Dev Channel.<\/p>\n<p>Also, Microsoft changed to allow you to contribute your voice clips to the company again, even if on-device speech recognition is used.<\/p>\n<h3>Voice Typing<\/h3>\n<p>On build 25227 and higher releases will sync your voice typing (and launcher) and automatic punctuation settings across all devices signed in using the same Microsoft account.
