Windows 2022 HotPatch Option
Hi, Regarding Windows 2022 HotPatch option, Can this feature be supported through Update management solution for Azure VM's in a scheduled way?

Hi Shalini28
So far there is nothing that affirms that Automation Account Update management can do that job, but you can use Automatic VM guest patching for Azure VMs, it's an alternative.
Check the patching orchestration modes within: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/automatic-vm-guest-patching#patch-orchestration-modes
You still will need reboot for some of the other patches:

Hope it helped.
