Delivery Optimization breaking Windows 11 update downloads?
The best way to fix these Windows 11 24H2 update issues seems to be disabling Delivery Optimization for Windows Update downloads and forcing devices to get updates directly from SCCM distribution points. This avoids the problems DO causes with stalled or failing downloads after the upgrade.
To do this, you can set the Delivery Optimization Download Mode to “HTTP only” via Group Policy or Intune, which forces clients to download updates directly from your SCCM distribution points instead of using peer-to-peer transfers.
While this approach is widely recommended and works well in practice, Microsoft hasn’t released an official fix for this yet. So it’s the most reliable workaround right now, but not a guaranteed permanent solution. I’d suggest testing it out on a small group first to make sure it works smoothly before rolling it out everywhere.
