Are You Having Issue with Windows 10 WIP EDP SCCM CB Configuration Manager ConfigMgr

Are You Having an Issue with Windows 10 WIP EDP SCCM CB Configuration Manager ConfigMgr?

Are you having issues with Windows Information Protection (WIP, previously known as “Enterprise Data Protection – EDP” policies configured through the SCCM ConfigMgr CB 1606 production version?

If so, I was one of you. I’m talking about the issue I faced while deploying the WIP policy via the Windows 10 MDM channel. I will try to explain the problem which I had with WIP CI (for the specific scenario which I tested):-

When you open WIP CI, try to check whether everything is okay or not and exit out of CI with/without making any changes. Some values in CI XML will automatically change, breaking the entire CI.

Windows Information Protection WIP – Are You Having Issue with Windows 10 WIP EDP SCCM CB Configuration Manager ConfigMgr

I’ve embedded a video below explaining this bug/issue. If you are new to WIP/EDP and want to know how to create, deploy, and test WIP with Windows 10, look at my previous post and video here.

The good news is that Microsoft’s new rollup update (KB3186654) most probably fixed this issue. I have done extensive testing with Windows Information Protection (WIP) policies/CIs after installing the new rollup on the SCCM CB 1606 server, and the results are very promising.

How to Create – Deploy WIP EDP Using SCCM CB 1606 and End-user experience of WIP

I tried creating new WIP CIs, editing the existing WIP CIs, etc. All the scenarios I tested worked well for me. I tested this with Windows 10 1607 build numbers 14393.00 and 14393.82 (via MDM channel). Are You Having an Issue with Windows 10 WIP EDP SCCM CB Configuration Manager ConfigMgr Endpoint Protection?
