Source of WNS Notification in Intune Expedite Update Policy
Hello, When creating an expedite update policy via Microsoft Intune, a WNS (Windows Push Notification Service) notification is sent to the device to trigger the MDM session and apply the policy. Once the policy is applied, the device installs the update immediately using the Microsoft Update Health Tools. My question is: Is the WNS notification sent by Intune to trigger the MDM session also responsible for initiating the expedite update installation? Or: Does the Windows Update for Business Deployment Service (WUfB-DS) send a separate WNS notification to trigger the scan and installation via the Update Health Tools? I’m looking for an official clarification on whether WUfB-DS plays an active role in sending WNS notifications in this scenario, or if the initial Intune-triggered WNS notification is sufficient to initiate the expedite update. Thank you in advance for your insights!
Autopatch Client Setup v2 - Time Outs
Hi All Since our tenant was upgraded on 25/02 we've seen intermittant timeouts during the Autopilot process and those failing seem to happen on the installation of the Autopatch client set up. We're also seeing over 2k failures on the installation of the new client. Has anybody seen anything similar? Thanks Birdseed
Diffrence between assigned groups
Hello, Could somebody explain the difference between groups—manually created groups and assigning them in tenants—autopatch groups (Test and Last) and bunches of "Modern..." auto-created groups? Where do I have to add my computers if I need to add them to Update RIngs? And what about Office and Edge groups, i dont see them in any configurations... thanks

Microsoft's Approach to Fixing Broken Patches: New KB Releases vs. Updates to Existing KBs
We have disabled this KB in our patching because it is broken. (KB5034441) I'm checking the status of the patch https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-health/status-windows-10-22h2 to see if we can enable the patch again. Does Microsoft release a new KB number to fix a broken patch, or does it simply update the details/code of the existing KB and then release it to the public?
