Denying problematic updates
Hi everyone,
My computer is co managed with SCCM and it gets updates from an Intune update ring.
Yesterday the computer had a BSOD because of update 5000808 which is caused when attempting to print to certain drivers.
The thing is, I didn't receive any fixes that were published as out of band updates.
My question is: I know I can't control windows updates the same way I control them in WSUS. But I understand that pausing the ring might help. So, if my ring is set to run after 3 of patch Tuesday weeks and I want to pause it, how long do I need to pause it?

- Hi,
Just another idea....
Maybe instead of pausing the update ring... maybe trying to exclude/hide the update itself with a PowerShell script?
Install-Module -Name PSWindowsUpdate -force -confirm:$False
Hide-WindowsUpdate -KBArticleID "kb" -Confirm:$false- RahamimLIron ContributorThanks for the idea, did you test this? Another problem I have is, I need to distribute the module to all computers. I would rather avoid that.
- Hi, I did not test it lately. But it works when you want to hide an update.
What are the main reasons you don't want this module to be pushed to your endpoints?
If you don't blocked powershell, It could be a reason of course...
Take a look for some ideas, how to prevent the use of powershell
