Servicing information and timelines

Microsoft Purview Information Protection client

The Microsoft Purview Information Protection client has multiple components bundled up into a single downloadable package.

The Microsoft Purview Information Protection client is available on the Microsoft Download Center. The client includes the Information Protection Scanner, PowerShell, File Labeler (previously AIP Classify & Protect) and Viewer with a 3.X minimum client version.

The lifecycle of each generally available (GA) version of the Microsoft Purview Information Protection client is one year after release.

Client version Date released Supported through
3.1.103.0 12/13/2024 Preview
3.0.58.0 05/13/2024 05/13/2025

The date format used on this page is month/day/year.

The documentation is updated accordingly to a client release cycle and is applicable only to the latest supported GA versions of the client. Fixes and new functionality are always applied to the latest GA version and aren't applied to older GA versions.

Microsoft Update Catalog availability

After a short delay of typically four weeks, the latest general availability version is also included in the Microsoft Update Catalog. Microsoft Purview Information Protection versions have a product name of Microsoft Purview Information Protection > Microsoft Purview Information Protection Client, and a classification of Updates.

Including the Microsoft Purview Information Protection client in the catalog means that you can upgrade the client using WSUS or Configuration Manager, or other software deployment mechanisms that use Microsoft Update.

For more information, see Upgrading and maintaining the Information Protection client.

Note

Microsoft Purview Information Protection client version 3.0 and later requires a registry key configuration to upgrade by using the Microsoft Update Catalog for the first time.

Tip

Minor fixes aren't always listed so if you experience a problem with the Microsoft Purview Information Protection client, we recommend that you check whether it is fixed with the latest GA release. If the problem remains, check the current preview version (if available).
