Event details
Are there any plans to add a "Latest" option to the Feature update policy's "Feature update to deploy" setting of Intune Windows update management? I was wondering why my Intune managed devices were not going to Windows 11 24H2 yet and then remembered this setting still has to be changed manually each time a new H2 release comes out.

Hi jeddy_ ,
That's a good suggestion. Internally, we are exploring how to improve the feature update experience in a number of ways, including providing some form of automated approvals, possibly similar to how drivers does it, but better tuned to feature updates and some of the other important aspects unique to managing feature updates. So stay tuned!
-DavidFWIW, that feature already exists in Update Rings. The whole point of Feature Update Policies is to have the level of control that require manual intervention that jeddy_ mentions.
If you want to automatically roll out the latest FU then don't use FUP, just specify a delay in your update rings and all devices will automatically receive the latest FU.
So jeddy_, what functionality are you looking for that Update Rings does not provide?Appreciate the info there as I do have Update rings set up also, and that makes sense how they work for "Latest" Feature Updates where no Feature Update Policy applies. This would really be to target specific groups and leverage some of the other potential/future items mentioned on the AMA like potential "Latest Feature Update minus 1", or to enforce expanded Rollout options that Feature Update Policies offer such as "specific date" and "gradually" that could apply to a rolling calendar date vs. a fixed point in time (i.e. have a policy to always deploy the previous H2 update every year starting January 15th and running until January 30th).
