Microsoft"While it is true that syncing the 1903 and later category will have all of the feature updates after 1903 sync with your server (including 1903, 1909, 2004, etc. as per the article posted announcing that category), you (the admin) still have full control over which Feature Update to approve/deploy. To better understand, are you looking for a separate category for every Windows feature update released? If yes, why?"
hi AriaUpdated sorry for late reply to your question:
- in the past there was only one category called Windows 10. Including all data from 1507 through 1809.
If one uses only WSUS and not WU / WuFB and you would have used autoapproval this would make you DL all patches for all versions no matter if you use it or not.
I had high hopes to see 1903 and later meaning 1903/1909 and then hoped it would reoccour for 2004/20H2 as each of these sets as a product category share same Update files. But this did not happen. Rather 2004/20H2 is mystically in 1903 and later category.
For the very same reason, yes out of the box, to make it manageable it would be great to only auto-approve the updates of the Windows versions (since 1903) that one is actually using in the field.
Does this answer your question? Thanks for your feedback on this!
