Microsoft said that Windows 10 21H1 will be delivered with servicing technology, which was previously used for the October 2020 Update and November 2019 Update.

Microsoft is promising a scoped set of features, security and quality improvements.

Windows 10 21H1 will be a minor update and will be delivered via an enablement pack.

The new features in this update will include Windows Hello multicamera support. Windows Defender Application Guard performance improvements including document-opening times and Windows Management Instrument Group Policy Service (GPSVC) updating performance improvements for remote-work scenarios.
