Refactor and Re-Implement the Category Extraction from ICategoryCollection for OS_UPDATES payload
100%
Description
The current implementation of category names extraction concatenates all the category names into a single String and send via the payload from Windows agent.It is less flexible for further processing of update data such as filtering of category names individually. So to overcome those difficulties each category name should be separated instead of concatenating the names into a single String by returning a list of category names.
