WuFB and Clients that Never Check

Hello,

We moved to WUfB about 6 months ago and I love it for the most part.  The issue I have is that I always seem to have a small subset of Clients that are either stuck in Paused mode from a previous Pause initiation, or they never ever check for Updates unless I manually initiate it.  Any way to prevent this or proactively remediate this?

  • acjuelich have you confirmed that you don't have any old policies configured on the device? The devices shouldn't be paused unless pause feature/quality update start date is configured and shouldn't require manual effort unless Configure Automatic Updates (AUOptions) is configured to notify to download / install. I'd recommend reviewing your configured policies against this new blog: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-it-pro-blog/common-policy-configuration-mistakes-for-managing-windows/ba-p/2077328

      Thanks!  The 'Pause' was in reference to a Feature Update and it was removed months ago, but I still see Clients stuck with that.  Occasionally I do find some Clients with some legacy GP settings configured via the ConfigMgr Client so I can sometimes delete Registry.Pol and have it retry but I still have other clients that are configured properly and just sit there and never check.  Is there a Proactive Remediation that can be done, or something via Usoclient via Run Script to rectify some of these?

       

      I'll take a look at that article but I think when I glanced at it yesterday, it was more targeted to configurations via GPO, not Intune.
