Week 27 Software Releases Workspace ONE Launcher 21.09 Release and Important Changes (85938) - Today, we're excited to announce the general availability of Workspace ONE Launcher 21.09. This update delivers significant user experience improvements for end-users and a permission grant user flow for the "All Files Access" permission.
- This KB highlights some important changes that may impact device experiences.
· Scoped StorageUse the following custom setting profile to enable the permission grant flow for the "All Files Access" permission. This profile must be used for migration scenarios (OS update or Hub update) and pushed after Hub updates to v21.09.
<characteristic type="com.airwatch.android.agent.settings" uuid="568bc89d-1df8-4ce9-a041-e5a24acdb7df">
<parm name="EnableAllFileAccessPermission" value="True"/>
</characteristic>
Note: To minimize the impact of the scoped storage security change, VMware recommends upgrading devices to Launcher 21.09 before auto-updating Intelligent Hub 21.09.

Users will see a message requesting them to use Intelligent Hub on one of the following supported browsers - Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge (Chromium-based).
- Hub Services announced last year that Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub Web and the Hub Services Admin Console will no longer support Internet Explorer 11 (IE 11) after April 30th, 2021. However, this was not enforced so a subset of our customers can get the additional time to plan and migrate users from IE 11.
- We have now reached a critical juncture where we must require users to use alternate and modern browser options after June 15th, 2022. This also aligns with Microsoft’s announcement to end Internet Explorer 11 on that date.
