  • Phones will need to be connected to WI-FI or mobile data
  • Phones should be sufficiently charged (above 50%)

    When deploying the baseline to mobile devises, shouldn't the option "Remediate nocompliant rules when supported" be enabled?

    I have been testing this in our environment and it looks to work well, although it appears to upgrade to 1511 before updating to the 1607 build. I was just wondering if anyone knew of a way to upgrade straight to 1607, is there a different 'EnterpriseUpgrade' Value for 1607?
