Why do my Windows 10 2004, 20H2, and 21H1, and 22H2 systems continue to show compliant even though I've deployed the Feature Update to 22H2, and they are clearly NOT 22H2!?

Make sure you are also deploying the Windows 10 22H2 Enablement Package!


Enablement package?
Each time a monthly cumulative update gets installed, it includes files from the upcoming Feature Update. These files are stored on the drive and include the updates for the next Feature Update.

In October 2022, all the pieces were in place for Windows 10 22H2. Microsoft then released "Feature Update to Windows 10 Version 22H2 x64-based systems 2022-10 via Enablement Package".
(One for each CPU architecture.)

So, in ConfigMgr add the enablement package to your deployment (it is language agnostic) and let it fly.


The enablement package is about 2mb and takes only a few minutes and a reboot.

Here is some more information about the enablement package.

Note: Any Windows 10 version prior to 2004 can't use the enablement packages. They must use the full 22H2 Feature Update package.

ConfigMgr Task Sequence Fails Immediately with "The software could not be found on any servers at this time."

Happy Monday, fellow ConfigMgr administrators! I ran across a pretty difficult Task Sequence last week that had me scratching my head. It involved a pretty complex Task Sequence that contained over 50 applications. The Task Sequence would fail within 5 seconds upon launch from the Software Center with an message of  “The software could not be found on any servers at this time.” No error code was given. I ended up removing all the apps from the TS and adding them back one at a time. Many of the applications had at least one supersedence, dependencies and dependency chaining. It turned out there was one particular superseded application that  was missing its content!! Yeah, that would do it. Unfortunately, ConfigMgr did not log what application or package ID had its content missing so it was a crap shoot trying to find it.  I really feel like there should have been a log somewhere that gave this information. This is the only log information I coul

Delivery Optimization in Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (ConfigMgr)

Delivery Optimization can be a powerful tool to help manage your content. However, getting things configured can be confusing and daunting. Here I've broken out the steps to get you going. Client Settings 1.     BranchCache and PeerCache. a.    First, create a new Custom Device Settings and check the box for “Client Cache Settings” and “Delivery Optimization”. b.       BranchCache . To enable BranchCache on clients, set “Configure BranchCache” and “Enable BranchCache” to Yes and set the “Maximum BranchCache cache size (percentage of disk)”. (Default is 10). c.        PeerCache . To make the client a SuperPeer (PeerCache Source), set “Enable as peer cache source” to “Yes”. Note: SuperPeers should be clients that are newer (faster), always on devices, that are hard wired, and have plenty of hard drive space. Note: Build a WQL query to create and maintain a collection of SuperPeers. I.E., CPU, memory, free space, etc.   2.     Delivery Optimization and Microsoft Con

News Update Windows Update for Business Reports If you are using Windows Update for Business (WUfB) to manage updates for your devices, you may want to know how well they are performing and what issues they are facing. WUfB Reports can help you with that. WUfB Reports are a set of dashboards and reports that provide insights into the update status, compliance, and health of your devices. You can access them from the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center or the Microsoft 365 admin center. Some of the benefits of using WUfB Reports are: You can see the update compliance and deployment progress of your devices across different rings and policies. You can identify devices that are missing updates, have update errors, or are out of support. You can troubleshoot update issues by drilling down into the details of each device and update. You can export the data to Excel or Power BI for further analysis and reporting. To use WUfB Reports, you need to have devices enrolled in Microsoft Intune
