Hi There,
We have just started using Windows Update for Business to manage Windows updates and Feature updates and have some 1809 devices we'd like to update to 20H2 using this method. The problem we're having is that the test device wants to go 1809 -> 1903 -> 1909 -> 20H2 rather than 1809 -> 20H2. Is this expected behaviour? Is there a way round this?
The test device is not using WSUS and has the correct policy applied in the registry:
HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate
BranchReadinessLevel REG_DWORD 16: for Windows 10, version 1703: systems take Feature Updates for the Current Branch (CB); for Windows 10, version 1709, 1803 and 1809: systems take Feature Updates from Semi-Annual Channel (Targeted) (SAC-T); for Windows 10, version 1903 or later: systems take Feature Updates from Semi-Annual Channel
The deferment period for feature updates is set to 60 days after release.
As far as I can tell, the test device should be looking for the current feature update straight away, but 20H2 isn't picked up until 1909 has installed.
Thanks,
Tim
