The future of updating Windows is here! Richard talks to Aria Hanson about Windows Autopatch, the consolidation of Microsoft's various update mechanisms to keep your managed Windows devices current. Aria discusses the deprecation of Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) and the move to always-on cloud updates. The conversation turns to the various techniques for quickly rolling out updates to machines while still allowing the process to stop if there are problems, whether you first update IT workstations, then beta testers, and so on. There's also the Windows Roadmap to give you a heads-up on new features and updates coming, so you can decide in advance whether they will be available on your machines, without changing your overall update policies!Links<ul><li><a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/deployment/windows-autopatch/overview/windows-autopatch-overview?WT.mc_id=DT-MVP-10953">Windows Autopatch</a></li><li><a href="https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/windows-itpro-blog/windows-server-update-services-wsus-deprecation/4250436">WSUS Deprecation</a></li><li><a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/update/waas-manage-updates-wufb?WT.mc_id=DT-MVP-10953">Windows Update Client Policies</a></li><li><a href="https://www.microsoft.com/security/business/microsoft-intune">Microsoft Intune</a></li><li><a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/entra/fundamentals/how-to-manage-groups?WT.mc_id=DT-MVP-10953">Entra Groups</a></li><li><a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/intune/intune-service/apps/app-management?WT.mc_id=DT-MVP-10953">Intune App Management</a></li><li><a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/deployment/windows-autopatch/manage/windows-autopatch-groups-policies?WT.mc_id=DT-MVP-10953">Autopatch Group Policies</a></li><li><a href="http://aka.ms/windowsroadmap">Windows Roadmap</a></li></ul>Recorded October 27, 2025
