Hitachi Energy’s upgrade to Windows 11 on 89% of desktops

Hitachi Energy has migrated over 40,000 desktops to Windows 11 across 12 countries, starting with a pilot of 500 devices in November 2023 and full rollout beginning in March 2024, expected to complete by October 2024. The company assessed 45,335 devices, with 43,568 suitable for upgrade, and found 2,330 out of 3,034 applications compatible with Windows 11, achieving a 76% compatibility rate. Approximately 40,600 devices, nearly 90%, successfully transitioned to Windows 11, while the rest were upgraded to Windows 10. The migration utilized ManagementStudio integrated with various platforms for efficiency, with nearly 10,000 devices upgraded in May 2024. A pilot program tested the new OS with selected users to identify issues before broader deployment. Transitioning is crucial as Windows 10 approaches end-of-support, with Microsoft addressing numerous vulnerabilities in its updates.

TikTok returns to Apple and Google app stores in the US

TikTok, owned by ByteDance, was removed from Apple and Google’s app stores on January 18 due to a law requiring divestment or a ban in the U.S. The app, which has over 170 million users in the U.S., briefly suspended service, leading users to migrate to a competitor, RedNote. After nearly a month, TikTok returned to the app stores, coinciding with an executive order by former President Trump extending the enforcement of a potential ban until April 5. Concerns over TikTok's Chinese ownership and data privacy have persisted, with the company denying allegations of sharing user data. Trump initially supported a ban but later expressed a more favorable view of the app. He suggested the possibility of TikTok being jointly owned by American investors, with potential buyers including Frank McCourt, Kevin O’Leary, and Jimmy Donaldson (Mr. Beast).
