In the Datto RMM 14.9.0 release notes it says the platform now “supports fully automated deployment of Windows feature updates as part of the regular patching process.”

The notes are pretty light on detail though. Apart from:

…there doesn’t seem to be much guidance on how to actually enable it.

In our setup we generally don’t exclude updates, other than:

• delaying deployment by a few days
• excluding anything with “Preview” in the title

So far we haven’t seen any Windows feature updates being deployed, and we also can’t see them appearing in the available patches list.

Has anyone got this working in the real world yet? Curious to know:

• whether extra configuration is needed
• where feature updates appear in RMM
• whether they follow normal approval rules
• and how reliable the process has been so far
