| 2023-07-15 | MC prepare | Windows Autopatch will modify the Windows feature updates policies with the new minimum Windows OS version (Windows 10, version 21H2) as per the schedule above. No action is required from IT admins. We recommend that you review the number of devices running Windows 10, version 20H2 or below so you can plan and communicate to your end-users accordingly about the potential Windows OS upgrade that will be triggered by Windows Autopatch in May. IT admins can run the Windows 10 feature updates report in Microsoft Intune to see which devices are below the upcoming new minimum Windows OS version (Windows 10, version 21H2) supported in Windows Autopatch. While we recommend that managed devices run the minimum Windows OS version to keep receiving the latest security updates, IT admins can pause and resume Windows Autopatch feature update deployments as needed.
