## Expedited releases
|
## Release management
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the Release management blade, you can:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Track the [Windows quality update schedule](#release-schedule) for devices in the [four deployment rings](windows-autopatch-update-management.md#windows-autopatch-deployment-rings).
|
||||||
|
- [Turn off expedited Windows quality updates](#turn-off-service-driven-expedited-quality-update-releases).
|
||||||
|
- Review release announcements and knowledge based articles for regular and [Out of Band (OOB) Windows quality updates](#out-of-band-releases).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Release schedule
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For each [deployment ring](windows-autopatch-update-management.md#windows-autopatch-deployment-rings), the **Release schedule** tab contains:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The status of the update. Releases will appear as **Active**. The update schedule is based on the values of the [Windows 10 Update Ring policies](/mem/intune/protect/windows-update-for-business-configure), which have been configured on your behalf.
|
||||||
|
- The date the update is available.
|
||||||
|
- The target completion date of the update.
|
||||||
|
- In the **Release schedule** tab, you can either [**Pause** and/or **Resume**](#pausing-and-resuming-a-release) a Windows quality update release.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Expedited releases
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Threat and vulnerability information about a new revision of Windows becomes available on the second Tuesday of each month. Windows Autopatch assesses that information shortly afterwards. If the service determines that it's critical to security, it may be expedited. The quality update is also evaluated on an ongoing basis throughout the release and Windows Autopatch may choose to expedite at any time during the release.

### Out of Band releases

Windows Autopatch schedules and deploys required Out of Band (OOB) updates released outside of the normal schedule. You can view the deployed OOB quality updates in the **Release Management** blade in the **[Microsoft Endpoint Manager portal](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2109431)**.

## Pausing and resuming a release
|
### Pausing and resuming a release
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If Windows Autopatch detects a [significant issue with a release](../operate/windows-autopatch-wqu-signals.md), we may decide to pause that release.
|
If Windows Autopatch detects a [significant issue with a release](../operate/windows-autopatch-wqu-signals.md), we may decide to pause that release.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If we pause the release, a policy will be deployed which prevents devices from updating while the issue is investigated. Once the issue is resolved, the release will be resumed.
|
In the [Endpoint Manager admin center](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2109431) > **Release management** > in the **Release schedule** tab, you can pause or resume a Windows quality update.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can pause or resume a Windows quality update from the **Release management** tab in the [Endpoint Manager admin center](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2109431).
|
There are two statuses associated with paused quality updates, **Service Paused** and **Customer Paused**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Status | Description |
|
||||||
|
| ----- | ------ |
|
||||||
|
| Service Paused | If the Microsoft Managed Desktop service has paused an update, the release will have the **Service Paused** status. You must [submit a support request](windows-autopatch-support-request.md) to resume the update. |
|
||||||
|
| Customer Paused | If you've paused an update, the release will have the **Customer Paused** status. The Microsoft Managed Desktop service can't overwrite a customer-initiated pause. You must select Resume to resume the update. |
