New Year, New Momentum: Here are three Copilot updates to get you started into 2026

on
It's a new year, so I thought I'd start the year by mentioning three features already released, or soon going to be released. One of the features improves the workflow of sharing files with comments, the other improves the application specific Copilot, and the last feature makes it easer to find the nest available timeslot for a 1:1 meeting.

but ok, I have the right version of RDP, which is supposed to support NLA. Why doesn't it work. Well apparently MS decided to include the 6.1 in SP3, but not to turn the feature on by default.
What you need to do to RDP into a NLA enabled Win2008 servier, is to do some regediting.
