v2410.1

• BREAKING CHANGE - Update Get-LatestOSBuild function. Hotpatch on Windows Server 2022 Azure Edition 'Server2022Hotpatch' must manually be specified in the 'OSName' parameter otherwise it will default to non-hotpatch. This is because the official detection method (presence of an installed KB) is not sufficient to determine if hotpatches are actually being applied.
• Update Get-CurrentOSBuild function to correctly handle Hotpatch on Windows Server 2022 Azure Edition by checking if latest installed update is from hotpatch version or not. This is because updates from the traditional version can still be installed.
• Resolves issue with Windows 11 versions not returning correct results due to newly released Windows 11 24H2 which is now fully supported.
• Improved CI Tests to be more robust including new test for Windows 11 24H2.

v2409.1

• Updated to include catalog URL for baseline updates on hotpatch on Windows Server 2022 Azure edition.
• Updated CI tests to restore testing of all releases for hotpatch on Windows Server 2022 Azure edition. This is due to the new method of obtaining hotpatch baseline information and removing sleep between tests as code changes have now mitigated triggering Akamai CDN DoS protection.
