Microsoft uses diagnostic data to determine whether devices that use Windows Update are ready for a feature update in order to ensure a smooth experience. When Microsoft determines a device is not ready to update due to a known issue, a *safeguard hold* is generated to delay the device's upgrade and protect the end-user experience. Holds are released over time as diagnostic data is analyzed and fixes are addressed. Details are provided on some, but not all safeguard holds on the Windows client release information pages for any given release.

- **Compatible operating systems and editions**: Update Compliance works only with Windows 10 or Windows 11 Professional, Education, and Enterprise editions. Update Compliance supports both the typical Windows 10 or Windows 11 Enterprise edition, as well as [Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session](/azure/virtual-desktop/windows-10-multisession-faq). Update Compliance only provides data for the standard Desktop Windows client version and is not currently compatible with Windows Server, Surface Hub, IoT, or other versions.
- **Compatible Windows client servicing channels**: Update Compliance supports Windows client devices on the General Availability Channel and the Long-term Servicing Channel (LTSC). Update Compliance *counts* Windows Insider Preview devices, but does not currently provide detailed deployment insights for them.
- **Diagnostic data requirements**: Update Compliance requires devices be configured to send diagnostic data at *Required* level (previously *Basic*). To learn more about what's included in different diagnostic levels, see [Diagnostics, feedback, and privacy in Windows 10](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4468236/diagnostics-feedback-and-privacy-in-windows-10-microsoft-privacy).
- **Diagnostic data requirements**: Update Compliance requires devices to send diagnostic data at *Required* level (previously *Basic*). Some queries in Update Compliance require devices to send diagnostic data at *Optional* level (previously *Full*) for Windows 11 devices or *Enhanced* level for Windows 10 devices.

- **Data transmission requirements**: Devices must be able to contact specific endpoints required to authenticate and send diagnostic data. These are enumerated in detail at [Configuring Devices for Update Compliance manually](update-compliance-configuration-manual.md).
- **Showing device names in Update Compliance**: For Windows 10, version 1803 or later, device names will not appear in Update Compliance unless you individually opt-in devices by using policy. The steps to accomplish this is outlined in [Configuring Devices for Update Compliance](update-compliance-configuration-manual.md).
