The company he published same to you recently instructions on how to block vulnerable Windows boot managers using WDAC UEFI locking.
In addition to these changes, the new version also brings support for ZIP64, which means users will now be able to extract pictures .zip files that are larger than 4 GB.
It will also be possible to add or restore disks as compressed Virtual Hard Disk v2 (VHDX) images, as well as experimental support for Full Flash Update (FFU) images.
FFU is based on sectors instead of Windows Imaging file format (WIM) files, which means that FFU deployment will be faster, although you will have larger file sizes as a result.
