Thank you, Jason. During our WUfB PoC, we had a few devices get offered, and attempted to install, 20H2 from WU, although they had the Conexant ISST Audio driver Known Issue (Safeguard ID 25178825). When we checked the devices, they had run the Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser task but there were no C:\Windows\appcompat\appraiser\*.bin files and no information in the registry for Safeguards (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Appraiser\GWX SdbEntries). Everything else with WU is working great, we just want to avoid some devices (maybe sick ones 🙂 ) fly under the Safeguard radar.
