Endpoint Privilege Management for Windows 24.3 MR Release Notes

June 7, 2024

Requirements:

  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2 (required to use Power Rules, PowerShell audit scripts, PowerShell API, and Agent Protection)
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 (required to use Multifactor Authentication with an OIDC provider)
  • PowerShell 3.0 (required to use Power Rules, PowerShell audit scripts, and PowerShell API)

The executable version of the client package includes all necessary prerequisites (excluding .NET Framework) and automatically installs them as necessary. If you use the MSI or ZIP package, you must manually install any necessary prerequisites.

Issues Resolved:

  • Resolved an issue where executables could fail to launch if the working directory was set to a mapped drive location.
  • Resolved a potential system failure in PGDriver that could occur if EPM-W had to manage an IO request from another system driver with a non-NULL top level IRP.
  • Resolved an issue where an app would not become focused if it was launched from the Start menu and an EPM-W message was displayed.
  • Resolved an issue with the gpupdate /force and powercfg /list commands failing through remote PowerShell.
