|
||||
|
||||
## Starting with Windows 10, version 1903
|
||||
|
||||
With a current version of Windows 10, it's best to use the new policy introduced in Windows 10, version 1903: **Specify deadlines for automatic updates and restarts**. In MDM, this policy is available as four separate settings:
|
||||
|
||||
- Update/ConfigureDeadlineForFeatureUpdates
|
||||
- Update/ConfigureDeadlineForQualityUpdates
|
||||
- Update/ConfigureDeadlineGracePeriod
|
||||
- Update/ConfigureDeadlineNoAutoReboot
|
||||
|
||||
This policy starts the countdown for the update installation deadline from when the update is published, instead of starting with the "restart pending" state as the older policies did.
|
||||
|
||||
The policy also includes a configurable grace period to allow, for example, users who have been away to have extra time before being forced to restart their devices.
|
||||
|
||||
Further, the policy includes the option to opt out of automatic restarts until the deadline is reached by presenting the "engaged restart experience" until the deadline has actually expired. At this point the device will automatically schedule a restart regardless of active hours.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Policy setting overview
