### Improvements

<details>
<summary>New Package Names</summary>

The "*Push Upgrade*" package works as the "*Upgrade*" package did before.

The "*Publish Upgrade*" package doesn't prompt the end-user to start the upgrade, but still shows a warning prompt, telling the end-user to close all their applications, etc.

A new "*Force Upgrade*" package has been added. The package doesn't prompt the end-user before starting the upgrade, and doesn't show any warning prompts.

A new "*Force Upgrade with Reboot*" package has been added. The package acts the same way as the "*Force Upgrade*" package, but also allows reboots during the initial upgrade phase.

ℹ️ The "*Force Upgrade with Reboot*" package could cause the service to lose control of the upgrade phases, and the installation screen might not function properly.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Disk space check</summary>

The free disk space requirement has been raised from 10 GB to 15 GB. The check for free disk space is only executed during the "PreUpgrade" phase in the "Upgrade" packages.

</details>

<details>
<summary>Microsoft printer handling</summary>

Software based printers from Microsoft are now uninstalled before running the compatibility scan. Previously, the compatibility scan returned an error when incompatible software based printers were installed.
