# Deploy feature updates for user-initiated installations (during a fixed service window)
|
||||
# Deploy feature updates for user-initiated installations
|
||||
|
||||
Use the following steps to deploy a feature update for a user-initiated installation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Get ready to deploy feature updates
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Enable Peer Cache
|
||||
Use **Peer Cache** to help manage deployment of content to clients in remote locations. Peer Cache is a built-in Configuration Manager solution that enables clients to share content with other clients directly from their local cache.
|
||||
### Step 1: Enable peer cache
|
||||
|
||||
[Enable Configuration Manager client in full OS to share content](/mem/configmgr/core/clients/deploy/about-client-settings#enable-configuration-manager-client-in-full-os-to-share-content) if you have clients in remote locations that would benefit from downloading feature update content from a peer instead of downloading it from a distribution point (or Microsoft Update).
|
||||
Use **peer cache** to help manage deployment of content to clients in remote locations. Peer cache is a built-in Configuration Manager solution that enables clients to share content with other clients directly from their local cache.
|
||||
|
||||
[Enable Configuration Manager client in full OS to share content](/mem/configmgr/core/clients/deploy/about-client-settings#enable-configuration-manager-client-in-full-os-to-share-content) if you have clients in remote locations that would benefit from downloading feature update content from a peer instead of downloading it from a distribution point (or Microsoft Update).
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Override the default Windows setup priority (Windows 10, version 1709 and later)
|
||||
|
||||
If you're deploying **Feature update to Windows 10, version 1709** or later, by default, portions of setup are configured to run at a lower priority. This can result in a longer total install time for the feature update. When deploying within a maintenance window, we recommend that you override this default behavior to benefit from faster total install times. To override the default priority, create a file called SetupConfig.ini on each machine to be upgraded in the below location containing the single section noted.

%systemdrive%\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WSUS\SetupConfig.ini
|

|

```
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
[SetupConfig]
|
||||
Priority=Normal
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the new [Run Scripts](/mem/configmgr/apps/deploy-use/create-deploy-scripts) feature to run a PowerShell script like the sample below to create the SetupConfig.ini on target devices.

||||
- **Software updates deployment re-evaluation behavior upon restart**: Starting in Configuration Manager version 1606, select this setting to configure software updates deployments to have clients run a software updates compliance scan immediately after a client installs software updates and restarts. This enables the client to check for additional software updates that become applicable after the client restarts, and to then install them (and become compliant) during the same maintenance window.
|
||||
8. On the Alerts page, configure how Configuration Manager and System Center Operations Manager generate alerts for this deployment. You can configure alerts only when **Type of deployment** is set to **Required** on the Deployment Settings page.
|
||||
- **Device restart behavior**: Available only when **Type of deployment** is set to **Required** on the Deployment Settings page. Specify whether to suppress a system restart on servers and workstations after software updates are installed and a system restart is required to complete the installation.
|
||||
|
||||
>[!NOTE]
|
||||
>You can review recent software updates alerts from the **Software Updates** node in the **Software Library** workspace.
|
||||
9. On the Download Settings page, configure the following settings:
|
||||
- Specify whether the client will download and install the software updates when a client is connected to a slow network or is using a fallback content location.
|
||||
- Specify whether to have the client download and install the software updates from a fallback distribution point when the content for the software updates isn't available on a preferred distribution point.
|
||||
- **Allow clients to share content with other clients on the same subnet**: Specify whether to enable the use of BranchCache for content downloads. For more information about BranchCache, see [Fundamental concepts for content management](/mem/configmgr/core/plan-design/hierarchy/fundamental-concepts-for-content-management#branchcache).
|
||||
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
||||
> Suppressing system restarts can be useful in server environments or for cases in which you do not want the computers that are installing the software updates to restart by default. However, doing so can leave computers in an insecure state, whereas allowing a forced restart helps to ensure immediate completion of the software update installation.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Write filter handling for Windows Embedded devices**: When you deploy software updates to Windows Embedded devices that are write filter enabled, you can specify to install the software update on the temporary overlay and either commit changes later or commit the changes at the installation deadline or during a maintenance window. When you commit changes at the installation deadline or during a maintenance window, a restart is required and the changes persist on the device.
|
||||

- **If software updates are not available on distribution point in current, neighbor or site groups, download content from Microsoft Updates**: Select this setting to have clients that are connected to the intranet download software updates from Microsoft Update if software updates aren't available on distribution points. Internet-based clients can always go to Microsoft Update for software updates content.

To ensure resiliency against component store corruption or missing files that could occur due to susceptibility of certain types of hardware to file system corruption, a corruption repair service has been traditionally used to recover the component store automatically (automatic corruption repair) or on demand (manual corruption repair) using an online or local repair source. This service will continue to offer the ability to repair and recover content for hydration and successfully install an update, if needed.

#### Update ID and revision number
|
||||
#### Update ID and revision number
|
||||
|
||||
There are different identifiers for the same update in different contexts. It's important to know the identifier schemes.
|
||||
- Update ID: A GUID (indicated in the previous screenshot) assigned to a given update at publication time
|
||||
- Revision number: A number incremented every time that a given update (that has a given update ID) is modified and republished on a service
|
||||
- Revision numbers are reused from one update to another (not a unique identifier).
|
||||
- The update ID and revision number are often shown together as "{GUID}.revision."

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Revision ID
|
||||
|
||||
- A Revision ID (don't confuse this value with "revision number") is a serial number issued when an update is initially published or revised on a given service.
|
||||
- An existing update that is revised keeps the same update ID (GUID), has its revision number incremented (for example, from 100 to 101), but gets a new revision ID that isn't related to the previous ID.
|
||||
- Revision IDs are unique on a given update source, but not across multiple sources.
|
||||
- The same update revision might have different revision IDs on Windows Update and WSUS.
|
||||
- The same revision ID might represent different updates on Windows Update and WSUS.

|

- The same revision ID might represent different updates on Windows Update and WSUS.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Local ID
|
||||
|
||||
- Local ID is a serial number issued by a given Windows Update client when an update is received from a service.
|
||||
- Typically seen in debug logs, especially involving the local cache for update info (Datastore)
|
||||
- Different client PCs assign different Local IDs to the same update
|
||||
- You can find the local IDs that a client is using by getting the client's %WINDIR%\SoftwareDistribution\Datastore\Datastore.edb file

- You can find the local IDs that a client is using by getting the client's %WINDIR%\SoftwareDistribution\Datastore\Datastore.edb file
|
||||
|
||||
#### Inconsistent terminology
|
||||
- Sometimes the logs use terms inconsistently. For example, the InstalledNonLeafUpdateIDs list actually contains revision IDs, not update IDs.
|
||||
- Recognize IDs by form and context:
|
||||
|
||||
- GUIDs are update IDs
|
||||
- Small integers that appear alongside an update ID are revision numbers
|
||||
- Large integers are typically revision IDs
|
||||
- Small integers (especially in Datastore) can be local IDs

## Upgrade paths
|
||||
|
||||
This article provides a summary of available upgrade paths to Windows 10. You can upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7 or a later operating system. Paths include upgrading from one release of Windows 10 to later release of Windows 10. Migrating from one edition of Windows 10 to a different edition of the same release is also supported.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're also migrating to a different edition of Windows, see [Windows edition upgrade](windows-edition-upgrades.md). Methods and supported paths are described on this page to change the edition of Windows. These methods require that you input a license or product key for the new Windows edition prior to starting the upgrade process. Edition downgrade is also supported for some paths. However, applications and settings aren't maintained when the Windows edition is downgraded.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Windows 10 version upgrade**: You can directly upgrade any General Availability Channel version of Windows 10 to a newer, supported General Availability Channel version of Windows 10, even if it involves skipping versions. Work with your account representative if your current version of Windows is out of support. See the [Windows lifecycle fact sheet](/lifecycle/faq/windows) for availability and service information.
|
||||
|
||||
- **In-place upgrade from Windows 7, Windows 8.1, or [Windows 10 General Availability Channel](/windows/release-health/release-information)** to Windows 10 LTSC isn't supported. Windows 10 LTSC 2015 didn't block this in-place upgrade path. This issue was corrected in the Windows 10 LTSC 2016 release, which only allows data-only and clean install options.
|
||||
|
||||
You can upgrade from Windows 10 LTSC to Windows 10 General Availability Channel if you upgrade to the same or a newer build version. For example, Windows 10 Enterprise 2016 LTSB can be upgraded to Windows 10 Enterprise version 1607 or later. Upgrade is supported using the in-place upgrade process using Windows setup. The Product Key switch needs to be used if you want to keep your apps. If you don't use the switch, the option **Keep personal files and apps** option is grayed out. The command line would be `setup.exe /pkey xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx`, using your relevant Windows 10 GA Channel product key. For example, if using a KMS, the command line would be `setup.exe /pkey NPPR9-FWDCX-D2C8J-H872K-2YT43`.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Windows N/KN**: Windows "N" and "KN" SKUs (editions without media-related functionality) follow the same upgrade paths shown in the following tables. If the pre-upgrade and post-upgrade editions aren't the same type (for example, Windows 8.1 Pro N to Windows 10 Pro), personal data is kept but applications and settings are removed during the upgrade process.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Windows 8.0**: You can't upgrade directly from Windows 8.0 to Windows 10. To upgrade from Windows 8.0, you must first install the [Windows 8.1 update](https://support.microsoft.com/help/15356/windows-8-install-update-kb-2919355).
