MAV/AVD and Windows 11 26H2: Hold Your Upgrades

Summary

The MAV/AVD Agent is not yet certified for Windows 11, Version 26H2. Customers should not upgrade managed endpoints to 26H2 until a compatible agent release is available.

Impact

ScenarioWhat happens
Endpoint already on 26H2 with MAV/AVD installed prior to upgradeAgent shows an OS-incompatibility message; protection continues uninterrupted — the device remains protected
New MAV/AVD install attempted on a device already running 26H2Installation will fail
Endpoint still on a supported Windows versionNo impact today, but do not upgrade to 26H2 yet

Recommended Action

  • Do not upgrade managed endpoints to Windows 11, Version 26H2 until we announce a compatible MAV/AVD release.
  • If a device has already been upgraded, no immediate action is needed — MAV/AVD keeps protecting the device; the incompatibility message is informational only.
  • Hold off on new MAV/AVD deployments to any endpoint already running 26H2 until the compatible build ships.

Next Update

This page will be updated as soon as a 26H2-compatible MAV/AVD agent version is released.
