Here are three copilot updates coming our way, and this is what to make of them

Changes aimed at streamline workflows: As Microsoft continues to evolve its AI-powered productivity suite, three significant updates are rolling out across Microsoft 365 in June and July 2025. These changes are designed to streamline workflows, enhance research capabilities, and bring generative AI closer to users in their daily apps. Here is my summary of the three updates, and what you might want to be aware of. Access SharePoint agents in the Microsoft 365 Copilot app Some time ago, Microsoft introduced SharePoint Agents. These agents are integrated into the navigation, and users have to navigate to that specific site in order to access the agent.

Ok, So I have the basics up and running, but is it working? Aperantly, yes.
Front end and backend now run without errormessages, and I can chat, call and use livemeeting on all the clients.

I decided not spend to much time on running around, installing applications, so I am using AD Group policies to deploy the applications. Here is a quick rundown of what I did:

Livemeeting:
  • Download software from www.livemeeting.com (Remember to download both client and outlook plugin)
  • Convert exe files to .msi files by running "LMsetup.exe -out c:\temp" (presuming c:\temp exists)
  • Create a GPO for distribution (Assign or publish, Computer or User - It depends on your preference)
  • Create Groups for filtering of the GPO
  • Add objects to the groups
  • Remove "authenticated users" from the filtering, add the desired group.
Attendant:
The attendant setup file I downloaded was already a .msi file, so no conversion was needed. Other than that, just repeat the steps from above.
