Windows 365 updates | AI‑Ready Work, Apps on Demand, Resilient Access
Automate real work, modernize app delivery, and keep users productive from any device with Windows 365 for Agents. Assign AI agents their own Cloud PCs to complete tasks in your apps and workflows using natural-language instructions to eliminate fragile UI-based automation and accelerate scalable, resilient processes across your organization.
Publish individual Cloud Apps instead of full desktops to simplify management, modernize legacy applications, and deliver consistent experiences to any device. And if a device breaks, is lost, or needs repair, Windows 365 Reserve lets you instantly provide users with a secure, temporary Cloud PC, restoring productivity in minutes while reducing IT overhead.
Scott Manchester, Windows 365 Vice President, joins Jeremy Chapman to show how you can streamline automation, app delivery, and business continuity with the latest Windows 365 updates.
