Windows Autopatch provides the option to turn off of service-driven expedited quality updates.

+### 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 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. |
