Event details
We manage a large number of Windows 10/11 devices via Microsoft Intune / Windows Update for Business.
We frequently encounter recurring Windows Update failures (feature updates, cumulative updates, servicing stack issues) that require manual troubleshooting:
- log analysis
- reset Windows Update components
- running Windows Update Assistant
This is not scalable for us.
Is there a Microsoft‑supported way to automatically detect and remediate common Windows Update failures at scale?
Specifically, we are looking for guidance on:
- Proactive Remediations or built‑in auto‑healing
- Windows Autopatch or Update Health / Update Compliance auto‑correction capabilities
- Any official remediation scripts, policies, or services that can replace manual fixes
Our goal is to self‑heal update issues automatically, without human intervention whenever possible.
