Overview
- The ‘default’ version of a client is the one that will be installed on endpoints when you run an install task via Endpoint Manager.
- This is set to always fetch and install the latest version unless you specify otherwise.
- Once you have chosen the default version, it will be pre-selected in the following wizards and interfaces:
- Device Enrollment - 'Devices' > 'Device List' > 'Enroll Device'
- Bulk installations - 'Devices' > 'Bulk Installation Package'
- Update additional packages - 'Devices' > 'Device List' > select a Windows profile > 'Install or Update Packages' > 'Update Additional Packages'
- ‘Updates’ section of a Windows profile - 'Configuration Templates' > 'Profiles' > open a Windows profile > 'Updates' profile section
- You can also specify whether admins can change the client version when they perform one the activities listed above.
- Leave the 'Enable change...' options disabled to prevent admins from installing a different version to the one you selected.
- This avoids the possibility of admins installing older or incompatible versions of the clients.
