    I'm pretty sure you can only roll updates back for the ring itself, affecting all members.

     

    My suggestion would be to create several rings with staggered deferrals. Have some users be early adopters (with the lowest deferral value) to fully test your updates in all device scenarios and uses before rolling out to the wider estate.

     

    To resolve your situation, you could create a new ring with a long deferral, move the problematic devices into this ring. Then deploy a Powershell script to remove the problematic update, EG containING:

     

    wusa /uninstall /kb:KBNUMBER

     

    Then once you've decided on  your long term update strategy and incorporate those devices into it.
