Let’s see the features introduced in the MEMCM ConfigMgr 1912 Technical Preview version.

The recent update (1912) for the Technical Preview Branch of Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager introduces a new feature that allows you to initiate a client notification action from the Configuration Manager console to prompt a client device to upload its client logs to the site server.

These logs are returned to the site using an on-demand software inventory file collection. Additionally, Resource Explorer provides various options for accessing the collected log files.

What are the New Task Sequence Enhancements of MEMCM 1912 TP?


MEMCM 1912 TP comes with Bootstrap, a task sequence immediately after client registration. The following are new task sequence variables:

1. TSSecureBoot
> NA: The associated registry value doesn’t exist, which means the device
doesn’t support a secure boot
> Enabled: The device has secure boot enabled
> Disabled: The device has a secure boot disabled

2. SMSTSRunCommandLineAsUser
> True: User context
> False: Any further Run Command Line steps run in the context that you
configured on the step

3. SMSTSRunPowerShellAsUser
> True: User context
> False: Any further Run Command Line steps run in the context that you
configured on the step

You can search CMPivot entities and see entity properties similar to Task Sequence search options.
