Did expediting the 2024-08 Quality Updates fail for anyone else?
Per this response from pmahl in the other conversation I started in the Intune community:
the issue was definitely fixed in 24H2 (W11) and it does not use the Windows update health tools anymore. actually, if you have them installed on 24H2 (W11) it will cause issues. this is not documented.
KB4023057 is only for 23H2 and below.
I would not use expedited updates unless you use it on 24H2 (W11). i have not seen it be reliable on any other OS..
Thank you, hrxlaunchctl. I am relieved to hear it isn't just our organization facing this issue. I will continue working with Microsoft Support to try and find a resolution.
hrxlaunchctl I haven't heard anything recently, and the September updates installed normally (likely because we did not attempt to expedite them). I did also reach out to a member of the Windows Update product group on social media, and as far as I know their investigation is still ongoing.
I will update this thread if and when I hear anything.
- I'm wondering if this directly correlates to the GPO issue I mentioned above. Although we are an Intune managed, Entra joined (cloud only) environment, Windows update GPOs are appearing alongside our MDM policies on the endpoints that are not updating successfully. This started in August (or maybe in July, after the last successful quality update was applied to all of our machines) and seems too coincidental. July's expedited quality (KB5040442) update introduced an issue with the Windows Update Agent (WUA) API for Enterprise customers. If they were making changes to the WUA API, it seems plausible that this update may have also caused our issue.
There is a very recent post about this (GPO appearing alongside MDM policies on endpoints/causing update issues) on Reddit.
