Microsoft 365 Service Updates, published in late November 2025, details upcoming system modifications across the suite, focusing on modernizing performance, enhancing security, and significantly expanding AI integration. Several changes target improved user experience, such as introducing a new process (ms-teams_modulehost.exe) to boost Teams desktop client performance and implementing a resizable divider for customizing meeting layouts. Security is addressed through required changes like the migration from external access tokens to Microsoft Entra authentication for actionable messages. A major focus is the proliferation of Copilot, with the addition of specialized AI tools, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint agents, and an updated dashboard displaying enhanced meeting metrics. Administrators are advised of feature retirements, such as the removal of the Insert Document and PPT feature in Microsoft Whiteboard, and necessary actions like allowlisting the new Teams process in security software.
