Working with Copilot is getting even easier. Microsoft is rolling out a feature that ensures conversations are preserved even when users navigate away from a session. As soon as a prompt is submitted, an entry is immediately created in the navigation pane’s session history allowing for a quick return without losing progress. The update is rolling out now for standard multi-tenant, GCC, GCC High, and DoD customers.

Administrators using the Microsoft 365 admin center and Teams admin center who manage agents and apps that work across Teams, Outlook and the Microsoft 365 copilot will be able to apply their changes consistently across all these surfaces.

350+ updates on the week of Thanksgiving ahead of a busy December period, including Copilot Academy reports in Viva Insights.

Microsoft is making some updates to Microsoft Teams Interpreter and multilingual meeting experience. First, spoken language is now automatically detected and updated across Interpreter, live captions, and live transcription. Next, a new “preparing” status provides clear visual feedback while Interpreter initializes, helping users know when the system is ready. Finally, Interpreter settings have also been improved with concise explanations for each configuration and field, making setup easier and minimizing confusion. These updates are expected to rollout in December 2025.

Microsoft is bringing Copilot Chat to the core Microsoft 365 apps across Commercial, GCC, GCC High, and DoD environments. This expansion will allow users to interact directly with Copilot through chat—asking questions, refining searches, drafting content, and locating shared information—all within familiar Office 365 experiences. The update reflects Microsoft’s continued investment in making Copilot broadly accessible, including for government customers. Initial rollouts are expected to begin as early as December 2025, with additional environments following in early 2026.

The floating Copilot button is a quick-access button that appears prominently in your OneDrive web interface. Through the new button you can ask questions about your files, summarize documents, or compare content, all without leaving OneDrive. The new feature will be available in November 2025 for Microsoft 365 Copilot users.

Microsoft is introducing Purview compliance portal enhancements to metadata reporting in item.csv exports and Add to Review set CSVs, including new fields such as error details, is encrypted, and sensitivity label. These updates provide clearer, more detailed insights into items processed during export and review workflows.

Always-on diagnostics captures critical diagnostic data from onboarded endpoint devices running on macOS for EDLP issue reporting. Comprehensive trace logs will be automatically recorded and stored locally on onboarded Mac devices, eliminating the need to reproduce issues when submitting investigation requests to Microsoft. This feature update is scheduled for November 2025.

Microsoft is working on improving version history for SharePoint Lists and Document Libraries generated with grid view editing. This update will improve reliability, reduce storage, and streamline the user experience by consolidating multiple edits into one where possible. Automation rules and flows, if configured with item level edits, will also now trigger more efficiently. The feature is currently in development and scheduled for release in November 2025.

Intune administrators will be able to manage individual Windows quality updates including non-Security and out-of-band updates. Admins can choose which update types to automatically approve and the rollout options for those approvals. The feature is scheduled to roll out in February 2026 for GCC.
