Both feature and quality updates are automatically offered to devices that are connected to Windows Update using Windows Update for Business policies. However, you can choose whether you want the devices to additionally receive other Microsoft Updates or drivers that are applicable to that device.
To enable Microsoft Updates use [Update/AllwMUUpdateService](/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-update#update-allowmuupdateservice).

Drivers are automatically enabled because they are beneficial to device systems. We recommend that you allow the driver policy to allow drivers to updated on devices (the default), but you can turn this setting off if you prefer to manage drivers manually. If you want to disable driver updates for some reason, use Update/[ExcludeWUDriversInQualityUpdate](/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-update#update-excludewudriversinqualityupdate).

1. Ensure that you are enrolled in the Windows Insider Program for Business. This is a completely free program available to commercial customers to aid them in their validation of feature updates before they are released. Joining the program enables you to receive updates prior to their release as well as receive emails and content related to what is coming in the next updates.

Joining the program enables you to receive updates prior to their release as well as receive emails and content related to what is coming in the next updates.
1. For any of test devices you want to install pre-release builds, use [Update/ManagePreviewBuilds](/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-update#update-managepreviewbuilds). Set this to **Enable preview builds**.
1. Use [Update/BranchReadinessLevel](/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-update#update-branchreadinesslevel) and select one of the preview Builds. Windows Insider Program Slow is the recommended channel for commercial customers who are using pre-release builds for validation.
1. Additionally, you can defer pre-release feature updates the same way as released updates, by setting a deferral period up to 14 days by using [Update/DeferFeatureUpdatesPeriodInDays](/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-update#update-deferfeatureupdatesperiodindays). If you are testing with Windows Insider Program Slow builds, we recommend that you receive the preview updates to your IT department on day 0, when the update is released, and then have a 7-10 day deferral before rolling out to your group of testers. This ensures that if a problem is discovered, you can pause the rollout of the preview update before it reaches your tests.

A Windows Update for Business administrator can defer or pause updates. You can defer feature updates for up to 365 days and defer quality updates for up to 30 days. Deferring simply means that you will not receive the update until it has been released for at least the number of deferral days you specified (offer date = release date + deferral date). You can pause feature or quality updates for up to 35 days from a given start date that you specify.
