Lack of Windows update group policy for Win 10/11 - "Reschedule Automatic Updates"
Hello, is there an equivalent policy or registry key for "Reschedule Automatic Updates shcheduled installations" for Windows 10 or 11? Currently, we have no way to use group policy to schedule updates for users who missed updates, which results in PCs missing updates for several months.
We have the latest ADMX templates, and the policy is showing in the "Legacy Policies" section and only works on Windows 7 or lower.

Adjust the Windows update schedule through Group Policy, but Win10/11 Home Edition does not have this feature, so you need to use the registry instead.
Unfortunately even Win 10/11 Pro/Enterprise do not have this policy anymore either. It was discontinued after Windows 7. I have found now the only reasonable alternative is to set an update deadline, which isn't as great for our use case, but will work.
