WUfB - Update Baseline / Best Practise
- Apr 21, 2022
A new article has recently been published that answers just that question, The Windows Update policies you should set and why - Microsoft Tech Community
In short, for what you've described, the default settings + configuring the deadline settings should give you what you are looking for. Default settings utilize Active hours, and even allow end users to specify their own active hours, or let Intelligent Active Hours find or recommend great settings for each user. And our default notifications provide a daily reminder until the deadline+grace period are reached and then provide a couple more reminders before restarting.

Yes, those are the right settings for the compliance deadline!- Kevin SchmidMay 05, 2022Copper Contributor
hi David_Guyer
We made this Setting but we have some questions about definitions;
- When you receive the update notification - you can say: "Remind me later" - what does "later" mean?
when is the next notification?
- Grace periods; in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/update/update-policies is the discription from "on vacation" - does this mean the device is offline (for the hole vacationtime?)
- we set the setting "Don't auto-restart until end of grace period" - but the device restart out the active hours ? so what do this setting?
thank you for your help! 🙂
