Event details
Hi, when will the new interface that was shown during the driver demo be available in production tenants? For the align with patch Tuesday deployment/rings, is there only the option to set a specific date (if so, how should we calculate the date (end of deferal or end of grace period) to avoid multiple reboots?

The interface shown in the demo is part of the existing Windows Autopatch experience and has been available since September of last year. This experience is used to manage drivers across your Autopatch group policies, providing a streamlined way to oversee driver updates.
Driver updates are categorized as quality updates and follow the same deferral and deadline settings. To align driver updates with Patch Tuesday deployments and avoid multiple reboots, the goal is for both the driver and quality updates to be offered in the same scan. We recommend approving the driver update so that it becomes available at the end of the deferral period.
