Step 6

 

There are three options in the release preference --  let us go through it in detail.

 

 

• Standart release for everyone
  This should be used for Production Tenant where we would not require any new updates other than the stable updates.
  
  
• Targeted release for everyone
  This should be used for Development Tenant where we would require all the new updates even when it is in Preview mode. This will help us know  the latest features developed by Microsoft
  
  
• Targeted release for selected users
  This should be used when we won't require all the users in the tenant to get the new updates or the features in the Preview mode. We can specify which users should have that access.
